Cattleya Orchid [Cattleya spp.]

Product Description

Aloha! I’m the Cattleya Orchid — the queen of tropical blooms. Known for my spectacular flowers and rich fragrance, I’ve been a favorite in Hawaii since the 19th century, adding beauty and elegance to weddings, leis, and island celebrations.

My blossoms can reach up to 6 inches across and come in an array of stunning colors like purple, pink, yellow, and white. When I bloom (usually late winter to spring), it’s a floral event worth celebrating. And yes — I’m fragrant too!

Despite my glamorous appearance, I’m not fussy. I prefer bright, indirect light and good air circulation. You don’t need a greenhouse to keep me happy — just a bright spot and some love.

What You’ll Get
