The Ultimate Show-Stopper Orchid

Turn heads with the Catasetum Penang 'Dark Red' (Catasetum Susan Fuchs $\times$ Catasetum pileatum). Aptly named for its breathtakingly deep blossoms, this magnificent hybrid is a must-have for collectors looking for a true conversation starter!

Why You'll Love Its Flower Specialties:

  • Dramatic Coloration: Highly glossy, waxy blooms in rich tones of deep crimson and a burgundy so intense it looks near-black.

  • Intense Fragrance: Emits a powerful, sweet, and spicy scent reminiscent of wintergreen or mint.

  • Gender-Switching Blooms: Grow in moderate shade and cooler temperatures to trigger the highly coveted, deep-red male flowers!

  • Explosive Pollination: Features a mechanical trigger that physically shoots its pollen packet when touched.

📋 Simple Care Guide

Catasetums are heavy feeders during growth but require strict rest. It is completely normal for this plant to drop all its leaves during or after flowering.

  • Spring & Summer (Growth): Give it plenty of light, heat, water, and fertilizer. Once new roots reach 3–5 cm, water heavily to keep the medium moist and feed with half-strength fertilizer.

  • Autumn & Winter (Dormancy): Once flowers finish and leaves drop, stop watering and fertilizing completely. Store bare bulbs in a dry, warm spot. Resume watering only when new growth emerges in spring.

Bring home the Catasetum Penang 'Dark Red' today and add dramatic luxury to your collection!
