Cattleya iricolor f. xanthina

An exquisite color variant of this prized, unifoliate epiphyte native to Ecuador, featuring narrow, single-leaved pseudobulbs with an upright, sympodial growth habit. The terminal, erect inflorescences emerge from a newly matured growth, displaying a clustered presentation of uniquely narrow-petaled blossoms that look exceptionally elegant in any collection.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the compact foliage.
• Temperature: 59–79°F (15–26°C); an intermediate to warm grower that adapts well to stable indoor conditions.
• Humidity: 60–80%; consistent humidity encourages vigorous growth and prolific flowering.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; never allow the roots to remain waterlogged.

Additional Notes

Providing excellent air movement around the root zone helps ensure optimal development and recurrent flowering. Ships bare root, well established, and ready to acclimate to your growing conditions.
