Cattleya aurantiaca 'Spots' x Ctna. Why Not 'Yellow'
(both parents are pictured- offspring will vary)
A new remake of an oldie made from Stewart's. It would have originally been made with a red Ctna. Why Not, instead of the new yellow form. We are hoping to see a range of yellow and orange blooms in tight clusters. Maybe some freckles?
While these will stay somewhat compact, they will need bright, indirect light similar to larger Cattleyas.
These seedlings are Blooming Size and expected to bloom within 6-12 months. We actually see a number of early sheaths emerging now.
These beautiful plants were provided by our friends at a wholesale orchid nursery in Hawaii. Because we did not raise them in our greenhouses, we can not guarantee them to be virus free as we would our own lab grown material. Otherwise, we guarantee your satisfaction and safe delivery as with other plant purchases.
