Cattleya warscewiczii f. coerulea 002

A magnificent select color form of this iconic species native to the mountain forests of South America, with this specific cultivar presenting a more subtle and delicate variation of the serene blue tone. This robust, upright epiphyte features strong, cigar-shaped pseudobulbs that produce prominent, nearly vertical inflorescences carrying an impressive cluster of exceptionally large, fragrant flowers that create an overwhelming display of grandeur.

• Light: Bright indirect light or filtered sunlight with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun to safeguard the clean foliage.
• Temperature: 59–86°F (15–30°C); an adaptable intermediate grower that benefits from a slight night drop to mimic its native environment.
• Humidity: 60–80%; maintaining consistent atmospheric moisture supports uniform growth and robust new root development.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when actively growing and allow the potting medium to dry almost completely before repeating.

Additional Notes

Growing this large-flowered variety in a coarse, fast-draining bark mix ensures optimal root aeration to maximize its massive plant and bloom potential. Ships bare root, well established, and ready to be rehydrated at an intermediate temperature and promptly potted upon receipt.
