Cattleya lueddemanniana 'Sarita' x 'Yamilet Ventura' X 'Sarita' x 'Yamilet Mzinn'

An exceptional internal cross combining highly select cultivars and line-bred generations of this magnificent unifoliate species native to the coastal and mountain forests of South America. The robust sympodial growth habit produces upright pseudobulbs that give rise to elegant terminal inflorescences displaying a spectacular presentation of large, heavily textured, and wonderfully fragrant blossoms.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the 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

Providing strong air movement around the container helps ensure optimal root development and uniform flowering cycles for this medium-sized plant with very large flowers. It ships bare root and should be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature before being potted immediately upon arrival.
