Lost the tag on this one - so it's an unknown now. Have had this one for 25 years brought back from an early trip to Ft Lauderdale.

That's a very lovely Catt you have there.
I love orchids, but I stopped buying Catts, BC's, LC's and BLC's because they only bloom once a year, and I just can't wait that long!
Also, I have found that the Catts and Catt alliance are most frequently infested with scale and mealy bug (due to the hiding places in the sheaths)

But I do have a lot of them, and these 2 are blooming right now
