Cattleya guttata
Usually about three feet tall, this orchid species flowers from late autumn to winter. The fragrant yellow-grees flowers are heavily blotched and wine-red to brown. The lip is usually magneta and may have white side lopes. This is another species that must be repotted at the right time of year. (Native of Brazil.)
