Rhyncholaeliocattleya Goldenzelle Orange Pun Pink Acc/aos

An Accession Certificate recipient from the American Orchid Society (Acc/AOS), this fragrant hybrid of Rlc. Fortune × C. Horace is a warm-growing Cattleya alliance orchid that produces large, full-faced flowers with exceptionally broad, rounded petals and a wide, ruffled lip featuring a vivid orange-to-yellow throat with a bold fuchsia border. The award-recognized floral quality and rich, warm tones make this hybrid a standout in any Cattleya collection.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–50% shade cloth; avoid harsh midday sun to protect the broad, rounded petals.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C); a warm grower that benefits from a 10°F (5°C) night drop to encourage blooming.
• Humidity: 60–80%; maintain consistent humidity with a tray or misting, especially during dry seasons.
• Watering: Water thoroughly 1–2 times per week and allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings; good air circulation around the roots is essential.

Additional Notes

Thrives in a coarse bark mix or unglazed clay pot that promotes rapid drying between waterings. Ships bare root and well-established — roots are healthy and ready to adapt quickly to your growing conditions. As with most seedling-grown hybrids, floral expression may vary between individual plants.
