The accepted name according to WCSP Kew is Cattleya dowiana var aurea.
var, (dot), its an abbreviation so its a grammatical thing

Brisbane.
I have tried so many of these without much success indoors. I think it really needs a GH.I grow my catts in orchiata bark, 25 mm, in plastic pot.I water them if only bark dried out.They get much light, but never get direct sunlight, humidity is always high, around 80 percent.I have a high preassure mist maker and is switched on by a humidity sensor, I adjusted it to 80 % .Fertilizer is peters growing and bloom booster mix, 3/1 in spring, 2/1 in summer and 1/ 1 in fall and winter.Conductivity is 500 uS.
