Schomburgkia tibicinis x Cattleya walkeriana

Only one flower this time but to me it's perfect.

That is a very interesting cross! One of the largest and one of the
smaller of the laeliinae. It is a bit like crossing an ostrich and a
sparrow...
But the result looks nice (a lot of walkeriana). How does the plant look
is it small, medium, large? And the stalks are they long as in
schomburgkia or rather short as with the walkeriana?
