Cattleya Tainan City 'General' x Blc. Pamela Hetherington

An exceptional hybrid cross uniting the select, high-quality cultivar C. Tainan City 'General' with the famous Blc. Pamela Hetherington. This robust epiphyte exhibits an upright growth habit with strong pseudobulbs, producing an spectacular display of large, heavily textured, and intensely fragrant flowers elegantly held on sturdy stems.

• Light: Bright indirect light or filtered sunlight with 40-60% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun to safeguard the clean, upright foliage.
• Temperature: 59-86°F (15-30°C); a highly resilient intermediate to warm grower that adapts beautifully to standard greenhouse or indoor environments.
• Humidity: 60-80%; consistent atmospheric moisture encourages rapid root establishment and keeps the large pseudobulbs plump.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when actively growing and allow the potting medium to dry almost completely before repeating; ensure excellent drainage.

Additional Notes

Growing this large-flowered variety in a coarse, fast-draining bark mix maximizes root aeration for impressive plant development and showy blossoms. Ships bare root, well-established, and ready to be rehydrated at an intermediate temperature and promptly potted upon receipt.
