Cattleya purpurata Rubra x Sanguinea 'Ecuagenera'

This exceptional variety is the result of crossing two premium clones of Cattleya purpurata. The 'Ecuagenera' selection combines the best traits of both, offering superior color and great flowering potential.

• Light: This orchid needs bright light, including some direct morning sun. Give it as much light as possible without burning the leaves to ensure robust growth and good blooms.
• Temperature: It thrives in warm conditions. Daytime temperatures of 24–30°C (75–86°F) and cooler nights of 18–22°C (65–72°F).
• Humidity: Provide high humidity (65–85%) with excellent air movement. This is crucial for healthy development and prevents stagnant conditions.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the plant is actively growing. Allow the potting medium to get almost dry before you water again. When the plant is resting, water less to avoid root issues.

Additional Notes

This exclusive 'Ecuagenera' selection produces magnificent flowers. They combine the deep red of the 'rubra' clone with the intense purple tones of the 'sanguinea' clone, creating spectacular blooms with great substance and vibrant color.
