Laeliocattleya Sunset Glory

Brassocattleya Sunset Glory.
She's an elegant beauty and has no fragrance. Hopefully I can capture her changing colors.

edit: corrected Laeliocattleya to Brassocattleya

Nice one. What's the flower size? Should be larger than the typical Bc. Richard Mueller hybrid.

BTW - Correctly Brassocattleya (Bc.) Sunset Glory, or formerly Blc. Sunset Glory.

Thank you for the information! The seller listed as Lc. and I had a hard time finding any information on it. This is a lot of help.

The flower is about L4"xW3". This is my first time owning a cattleya/cattleya hybrid, so I'm not sure how to reference it to a typical Bc. Richard Mueller hybrid.

Bc. Richard Mueller is B. nodosa x C. milleri, so has fairly small flowers. Very popular and easily grown. Hybrids from Bc. Richard Mueller tend to have clusters of smallish flowers with spots and show a color change as the flowers age. Yours is larger than most.
