This cattleya is a complex hybrid with approximately 8 differenct species in its background. These pictures were taken just after a rain. It is hanging in a wooden basket underneath my peach tree in Miami, Florida. This hybrid takes relatively high indirect light and does best with intermediate temperatures. It is a little warm in South Florida for it, but as you can see it did bloom after a long winter rest. The plant is a compact grower with small blooms. This plant is still very small. As the plant gets bigger, it will have multiple blooms at the same time.
