Laelia Catt? unknown cross
This is my first post for an ID although i've lost plenty of tags. I'm particularly fond of this plant: it is a smaller bifoliate with long narrow leaves and small (rupicolous-type) flowers. The sepals are yellow; the lip is lavender purple. Rather like an aurea form of something. I purchased it at the SF Orchid Expo show at least 2 years ago. I thought the vendor was Sunset Valley but Fred Clarke didn't recognize it although he thought the leaves might suggest a brassavola cross. The two photos show (1)the bloom and (2)the relative size as of now. Please excuse its current rattiness- it moved recently along with me. Thanks for any help in identifying my orchid.
