Cattleya lawrenceana f. coerulea
An exceptional and highly select color form of this magnificent unifoliate species native to the wet forests of South America, adapting to a strong sympodial growth habit with slender pseudobulbs. It produces an erect, terminal inflorescence that bears a striking cluster of heavily textured, long-lasting flowers featuring the prized and sought-after coerulea hue.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the compact foliage.
- Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C); an intermediate to warm grower that adapts well to stable indoor conditions.
- Humidity: 60–80%; consistent humidity encourages vigorous growth and prolific flowering.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; never allow the roots to remain waterlogged.
Additional Notes
Providing strong air movement around the root zone helps ensure optimal development and uniform blooming cycles for this medium-sized plant with nicely proportioned flowers. It ships bare root and should be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature before being potted into a loose, well-draining orchid mix upon arrival.
