Cattleya Hardyana x Brassavola nodosa
The flowers of this plant open with a faint green color but it quickly fades to ivory. When the lip opens it has many pink spots, but these fade after a few days. The lip expands a bit after the flower opens. In the mature flower the Brassavola influence is so overwhelming it is difficult to think this plant also has Cattleya dowiana and Cattleya warscewiczii in its ancestry.
