Stellenbosch University Botanical Garden, South Africa

Common name: laeliocattleya

Family: Orchidaceae (Orchid)

Comments: Due to the recent decision by the Royal Horticultural Society (the international orchid registration authority) to recognize the reduction of the Brazilian Laelia species and the entire genus Sophronitis to synonymy under Cattleya, many hybrids which had previously been described as Laeliocattleya hybrids are now classified as Cattleya hybrids.
