Cattleya aurantiaca

Cattleya aurantiaca - Plant photo by Richard LindbergThe genus Cattleya (C) contains quite a few species from tropical South America. They do best in a medium that has good drainage and dry between watering. Give them a short dryer rest after blooming. All of the South American Laelia species have been reclasssified as Cattleya.
