PATSP is a long-winded, intermittently humorous blog which is mostly about houseplants, particularly Anthuriums and Schlumbergeras.
Hmmph. Cattleyas think they're so pretty.
In this case, actually, I can kinda see it. It may be that I only like this one because it's different -- most of the catts and their relatives that I run into are frillier and more monochromatic than this.

I agree. I'm not a big fan of the frilly, Iris-looking Catts. But I like this one and some of the miniatures.
Hey, plants don't think about being pretty, only about procreation, and their "looks" are about attracting the right pollinating visitors for that purpose. of course you know this, and the lead in was poetic illusion. I'm a new follower, a gardener, and plant enthusiast and I appreciate your site.
Oh so it is a cattleya, if you didn't tell me i would say it is an Oncidium.
Stunning!
Not just another pretty face--a cut above.
