    Default Cattleya labiata forma coerulea

    Flower shape is better with only 2 flowers per spike. With 5 flowers, they are less unfolded as they touch each other. But I will not be the one who is disappointed !

    Spectacular!! Love the color. Great growing! I surely wouldn't complain either! Maybe staking would help separate the blooms?

    Thank you all.
    @ Rebecca : I can't stake the flowers now, I tried but was afraid of breaking.
