Cattleya quadricolor del tronco ec

An elegant and highly sought-after select clone of this famous species native to the cloud forests of South America. It features compact, upright pseudobulbs that produce magnificent, nodding spring flowers with a distinctive bell shape and a prominent, beautifully colored lip.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the compact foliage.
• Temperature: 59–79°F (15–26°C); an intermediate to warm grower that adapts well to stable indoor conditions.
• Humidity: 60–80%; consistent humidity encourages vigorous growth and prolific flowering.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; never allow the roots to remain waterlogged.

Additional Notes

This large-flowered orchid performs best when potted in a coarse, fast-draining bark mix to match its medium plant size. It ships bare root, well established, and should be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature prior to potting upon arrival.
