This orchid is part of the Cattleya family also known as LAELIOCATTLEYA but smaller. The plant grew quite large, roots out of the pot so Jim divided into 7 plants. One has re-bloomed, the other had a bloom but died, (much to my sorrow - as I hate losing any orchids). Another has a bloom coming, not quite sure of the rest. Hopefully they will all recover as re-potting orchids is touch and go - we are novices, so just winging it.
I shall make every effort to decorate with the orchids for Christmas. Saying that I wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.
