Laelia lindleyana

Not often seen, this is a plant originally collected many, many years ago which I received as an urgent care patient, about five years ago. It was dying, down to two 2" tall spindly growths. It is finally healthy enough to bloom; flower is about 4" across, another bud coming. It is in a 3' clay pot in a mix of half hand-chopped sphagnum and half aliflor clay pelllets like my rupicolous laelias, and grows in high light with cool autumns with them.

 

Nope. It was described twice, though it is now considered a natural hybrid between a brassavola and C.intermedia.
