Cattleya Intermedia-Gigas

A striking primary hybrid resulting from the historical cross between C. intermedia and C. warscewiczii, showcasing a robust sympodial growth habit. This exceptional orchid produces stout, upright pseudobulbs that give rise to magnificent, highly fragrant blossoms with an elegantly proportioned, beautifully detailed lip.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; protect the foliage from harsh, direct midday sun.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C); an intermediate to warm grower that thrives in stable conditions.
• Humidity: 60–80%; high ambient humidity supports robust pseudobulb growth and healthy development.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings, ensuring excellent drainage.

Additional Notes

This hybrid develops into a medium to large-sized plant that yields large, showy flowers, making it a perfect centerpiece for any collection. It ships bare root and should be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature before being potted into a loose, well-draining orchid mix upon arrival.
