This Brazilian species is a highly sought-after, compact-growing orchid. This specific coerulea form displays beautiful gray-blue or lavender-blue flowers. It is unique among most Cattleya because its flower spike emerges from the base of the pseudobulb, not the top.
- Light: Very bright light is required. It can tolerate a bit of direct morning or late afternoon sun, but requires protection from intense midday sun.
- Temperature: Intermediate to Warm. Day: 70°-85°F (21-29°C). Night: 55-65°F (13-18°C). A 10-15°F difference is essential for blooming.
- Humidity: High (50-80%) humidity is ideal, but excellent air circulation is mandatory to prevent disease.
- Watering: Extremely strict. Allow the potting medium to dry out completely between waterings. Drastically reduce watering during the winter rest period.
Additional Notes
This is a small, compact species with short, rounded pseudobulbs, making it ideal for limited spaces. It is valued for its unique blooming habit and its production of large, fleshy, fragrant flowers (3.5-5"). It grows well when mounted or in very coarse media.
