Cattleya purpurata purple lip x pink lip
An exceptional intraspecific cross that combines two distinct color forms of this iconic species native to the coastal forests of South America. This robust, upright epiphyte features tall pseudobulbs that yield a spectacular display of large, heavily textured flowers on prominent inflorescences.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 40-60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun to protect the upright foliage.
- Temperature: 59-86°F (15-30°C); an adaptable intermediate grower that thrives in warm to cool conditions.
- Humidity: 60-80%; consistent humidity encourages strong new roots and optimal vegetative growth.
- Watering: Water heavily during active growth, but allow the potting medium to dry thoroughly between applications to prevent root rot.
Additional Notes
Best accommodated in a coarse, fast-draining bark mix or an open basket to support its large plant size and impressive flower presentation. Ships bare root, well-established, and ready to be rehydrated at an intermediate temperature and promptly potted upon receipt.
