Cattleya intermedia (f. alba x 'Aquimii')

An exceptional cross combining a pristine white alba form with the select 'Aquimii' clone of this classic South American species. This vigorous sympodial orchid features slender, cylindrical pseudobulbs that produce short terminal inflorescences bearing elegant, highly textured flowers that add outstanding value to any collection.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; protect the foliage from harsh, direct midday sun.
• Temperature: 65–85°F (18–29°C); an intermediate to warm grower that thrives in stable conditions.
• Humidity: 60–80%; high ambient humidity supports robust pseudobulb growth and healthy development.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings, ensuring excellent drainage.

Additional Notes

This small to medium-sized plant produces beautifully proportioned, mid-sized blossoms that adapt seamlessly to mounted or potted setups. It ships bare root and should be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature before being potted into a loose, well-draining orchid mix upon arrival.
