Cattleya sedeniana

A Cattleya name published in 1884 in Nicholson's Illustrated Dictionary of Gardening and also attributed to Veitch; the name honours John Seden, Veitch's hybridist, and it is probably a nineteenth-century garden hybrid. No wild range or parentage was found, so the targets below are standard intermediate-cattleya conditions rather than habitat measurements.
