Cattleya Amelia (Cattleya intermedia x Cattleya cinnabarina)

[Halloamey]

Here is a rare and unusual primary hybrid of Cattleya intermedia and Cattleya (former Laelia) cinnabarina. I have been told that this is a division from a plant atleast 70 years old. It has a form like a cinnabarina but colors like an intermedia, I would have loved it to be other way round!! Its still a nice plant with 3 inch flowers.
