Cattleya Care Guide
Cattleya Care Guide
Cattleya orchids are very sturdy and can take a lot of abuse from those who tend to forget to water. They are also tolerant of several temperature ranges.

Watering
In Coconut Husk medium water retention is more compared to Pine Bark, so plants in Coconut Husk may require once in 2-3 days watering compared to 1-2 days watering in Pine Bark. Medium may dry faster or slower depending on the weather conditions. So always touch and feel the medium, only when partially dry water the plant. Learn more about watering here

Celebrated in the floral trade as the cherished "June Wedding Flower," this magnificent unifoliate species is native to Venezuela & parts of Trinidad and Tobago, fills the summer flowering gap with massive, fragrant blooms and rapid, simultaneous growth dynamics.
🌸 Flower Specialties
-
The "June Wedding Flower": Historically famous for blooming reliably in late spring to mid summer, filling the flowering gap between other major Cattleya species.
-
Simultaneous Rapid Development: Flower spikes emerge and bloom directly as the new pseudobulbs mature, without requiring an intermediate resting period.
-

-
Intense Fragrance & Lifespan: Delivers a distinct, sweet rose like perfume. Individual flowers last roughly 3 weeks, and keeping open blooms in a cool area extends their life.
🌿 Care Guide
-
Light: Medium high, filtered light (25,000–35,000 lux). Provide bright morning and late afternoon sun while shielding from intense midday heat. Aim for light olive green leaves as an indicator of proper light levels.
- Temperature: Intermediate to warm grower with daytime temperatures of 26°C–35°C. A distinct day to night temperature drop stimulates proper bud initiation. Protect from drafts below 55°F (12°C).
