    Default Cattleya baby blue

    Hi, I bought an amazing blue flowered Cattleya today. Its name tag says Cattleya baby blue. I searched on the net but I am unable to find such a plant. Here are the photos from the vendor. I am contacting the vendor, but if anyone finds out about this plant please let me know.

    I would guess LC love knot "carmela's blue"
    laelia sincorana x Catt Walkeriana coerulea

    ( I could be wrong but the leaves pbulbs and size make me think that there is L sincorana in the mix)

    I really like that! I've seen a few of those (white with the hint of purple/blue) online & they are one of the definates that I want to get when I finally order.
