Cattleya amethystoglossa 'Pink' x' Big'

An exceptional selective breeding combining two superior clones to enhance the species' most desirable traits—intensified pink tones, larger flower size, and more robust inflorescences bearing fragrant blooms adorned with bold amethyst-purple markings that create an even more dramatic display than the typical form.

• Light: Bright, filtered light with 30-50% shade cloth. Tolerates some direct morning sun but protect from intense midday rays.
• Temperature: Warm grower. Daytime 75-85°F (24-29°C), nighttime 60-68°F (16-20°C). Appreciates 10-15°F day-night differential for optimal flowering.
• Humidity: 60-80% with excellent air circulation. Maintain humidity through trays, humidifiers, or terrarium setups while ensuring constant air movement.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when medium approaches dryness, typically every 4-6 days during active growth. Reduce slightly after flowering but never allow complete drying.

Additional Notes

Selected breeding from Brazilian C. amethystoglossa clones chosen for enhanced pink coloration and larger flower size. Thrives in medium to coarse bark mix with perlite, or mounted on cork with sphagnum moss base.
