Cattleya purpurata Sanguinea x Rubra
Cattleya purpurata Culture
- Light: Give it very bright, indirect light, like filtered morning sun. High light levels are necessary for good flowering, but protect it from intense, direct sun.
- Temperature: Prefers intermediate to warm conditions. Maintain daytime temperatures between 65-86°F (18-30°C). A nighttime temperature drop of 10-15°F (5-8°C) is necessary for successful blooming.
- Humidity: Needs moderate to high humidity (50-85%). Excellent air circulation is mandatory, especially in high humidity, to keep the plant healthy and prevent disease.
- Watering: Water well when the potting medium is almost dry. Reduce watering frequency during the winter rest period after the pseudobulb fully matures.
Additional Notes
Flowers are large (6-8"), showy, with 3 to 7 blooms per spike. For best growth, use well-draining media (bark or clay pellets) and only repot when new roots start to appear.
