Default Cattleya labiata var. semi alba
The shape is not among the best, but these flowers are large and very fragrant. I really like semi albas for the contrasting lip! This is a piece of a larger plant I divided last year, so the flowers are not at their best.

I love this labiata Mauro. Honestly, in labiata, I prefer shape like this over the very fat cultivars. There is a simple elegance in these types. Thank you for sharing the pictures.

I agree with you about semi albas, not only for this one which is very nice but for the rest of the unifoliates.

Mauro, I see in most of your photos, your plants have 4 or 5 bulbs . Do you divide every couple years or are they just young plants.
