Laeliocattleya Scott Blount

An exceptional hybrid resulting from the cross between C. George Hausermann and L. splendida, inheriting the finest structural and ornamental qualities of its lineage. This upright epiphyte features strong, elongated pseudobulbs that produce stout inflorescences bearing large, heavily textured flowers with a magnificent, commanding presence that will captivate any collector.

• Light: Bright indirect light or filtered sunlight with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun to safeguard the clean foliage.
• Temperature: 59–86°F (15–30°C); an adaptable intermediate grower that responds beautifully to stable indoor or greenhouse environments.
• Humidity: 60–80%; maintaining consistent atmospheric moisture supports uniform growth and robust new root development.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when actively growing and allow the potting medium to dry almost completely before repeating.

Additional Notes

Growing this medium to large-sized hybrid in a coarse, fast-draining bark mix ensures optimal root aeration to maximize its impressive plant size and showy blooms. Ships bare root, well established, and ready to be rehydrated at an intermediate temperature and promptly potted upon receipt.
