hawkarica said:Bc is a Brassavola X Cattleya which is called a Brassocattleya
E is Encyclia
So they crossed a Bc, with an E which resulted in a Encyleyvola

Me neither but that's the truth as I know it. Very nice bloom also.

LOL, Thanks Jim ... I know I won't remember all of that 5 minutes from now, With all the long and sometimes strange names I'm forever having to refer back to my notes or info here on the forum.

I am so grateful to Kathy for having such a wonderful and informative Orchid forum, and to all of you great growers for sharing your tips!

I found a spike on Lc. Edgard Van Belle x C. Intermedia x Blc. Magic Meadow today and look forward to the blooms. I lost a lot of labels (and entire plants) to squirrels or some other critters a few years ago but was able to re-identify this one when it bloomed last year and earlier this year. I will post a picture when the buds open.
