Cattleya Marcela Aguinaga

A striking hybrid resulting from the cross between C. violacea and C. percivaliana, producing robust, upright growth and beautifully structured flowers. The upright pseudobulbs support elegant, fragrant blooms on terminal inflorescences that capture attention with their classic form and exceptional substance.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40-60% shade cloth; high light levels are essential to stimulate healthy pseudobulbs and regular flowering.
• Temperature: 64-86°F (18-30°C); adapts well to warm and intermediate environments with consistent day-to-night temperature drops.
• Humidity: 60-80%; adequate air circulation is highly recommended alongside elevated humidity levels to keep the foliage pristine.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and let the medium dry almost completely between applications, reducing frequency during the cooler winter months.

Additional Notes

This compact to medium-sized plant produces stunning mid-sized flowers that display exceptionally well when grown in pots with a well-draining bark mix. Ships bare root and must be rehydrated at an intermediate temperature immediately upon arrival before being potted to ensure successful acclimation.
