Cattleya Cornelia (1893) (Cattleya labiata x Cattleya pumila) is an old primary hybrid registered by Veitch in 1893. This is a remake of this old hybrid. The variety name, 'Kalapana', is an orchid nursery in Hawaii. The original hybrid has not been seen in a century so it's nice to see a remake such as this.
