    Default Can anyone ID this Cattleya?

    It looks more green in person, then it does in the photo.Name: Flower32.jpg Views: 230 Size: 48.8 KBName: plant32.jpg Views: 200 Size: 54.7 KB I would appreciate any help you can give. I think it has a slight fragrance, but I'm never sure because I have alot of plants in bloom.

    Possibly Rlc. PoP 'Gleneyrie's Green Giant' rather than 'Emerald Isle' but almost certainly Ports of Paradise or one of its progeny.

    Or it could be a Hawaiian Passion Carmela. However, HPC usually has lots of clusters and very fragrant, and since you're not sure ... I'd go with Ports of paradise because it most resembles my Ports of Paradise.

    Here's a Hawaiian Passion Carmela:

    And here's my Ports of Paradise:
