Catasteum Orchid Care Guide

Catasetums require plenty of water during their growth phase and need complete winter rest. During winter dormancy, keep them dry and start watering when a new growth comes up.

  Light

Catasetums Orchids thrives in bright indirect light. Learn more about light here 

 Watering

Catasetums require plenty of water during their growth phase.  This starts in spring when new growths appear with the onset of the pre-monsoon showers.  Watering should be gradually increased and they should be mature by the end of the monsoon.  Once the pseudobulbs are mature, watering should be reduced in autumn and tapered down until they start dropping their leaves which is an indication that water should be withheld completely except occasionally to prevent shrinking of their pseudobulbs.  It is at this time that they will come into bloom. Learn more about watering here

Fertilizing

Weekly once with Bio-20 or Basfoliar 19:19:19 for growth and rooting. Once a month with Basfoliar 13-40-13. Learn more about fertilizing here

 

 

Catasetum (FDK.) After Dark Bakers Burgundy Smile is a hybrid. A gorgeous hybrid from the master himself - Fred Clarke. These hybrids produce multiple flowers, vigorous growing plants and the possibility of flowering three to four times a year. Nice waxy burgundy-Rust coloured flowers. 

Fredclarkeara is heavy feeders during their growing period, with plenty of light, heat, water and fertilizer during the spring and summer months. After or during the flowering season it is common for these plants to drop all of their leaves. Reduce or stop watering and fertilizer once the flowers have finished, then resume a normal watering schedule when new growth emerges. 

The leaves can turn yellow and drop in transit as this is the season when the plants shed their leaves & prepare to go into dormancy, it is normal for Catasetums.
