    Default Cattleya lueddemanniana

    Cattleya lueddemanniana is a unifoliate species native to lowland Venezuela. I particularly like this one, and the color of the flower in the picture is TRUE! The violet "flashes" are visible without the aid of a camera...

    Am I right in thinking that it was this previously called speciosissima?
