Cattleya Lavender Diamond

A lovely sympodial hybrid resulting from the cross between C. caulescens and C. pumila, showcasing a beautifully compact and upright growth habit. It features terminal inflorescences that present long-lasting, heavy-textured blossoms, making it a stellar addition for anyone looking to bring vibrant elegance to their collection.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the compact foliage.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°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

This miniature to small-sized plant produces charmingly well-proportioned, moderately sized flowers that mount beautifully or fit easily into small pots. 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.
