A winter blooming unifoliate Cattleya species with massive 20 cm (8 inches) blooms.
The petals are so big and heavy the midrib bends to the gravity, giving it a soft droopy look. On a smaller bloom in previous years, this droop was a lot less. But alas, is size or form better? That is the question.
A selfing of Cattleya warneri coerulea 'Do Suzuki AM/AOS (18.2 NS).
