A sibling cross of the very popular Cattleya Angel Star (Pole-Star x Angel Flare). Expect small to mid-sized blooms on small plants. A wide array of colour combinations can be found from reds and pinks to oranges and yellows with many having contrasting splashes of colour in the petals. These have been know to bloom on overgrown plants in 5cm pots within a couple of years. Also, they will generally bloom off each new growth eventually reaching a point where there will always be flowers on the plant!
The photo that shows on each available variant is indicative of the size plant that you will receive. Size B plants can be expected to reach flowering size in 3 years; Size B+ plants in 2-2.5 years; Size C plants in 6-18 months (depending on the flowering season and time of purchase). Please check carefully when selecting options to avoid “size surprise”.
Cattleya, and their extended family of Orchids, originate from Central America. Sometimes known as windowsill orchids, Cattleya are a tolerant, easy to grow, indoor orchid; who enjoy a well lit, cool-warm position in your home (although we recommend avoiding too much direct sunlight in the heat of the day, morning or afternoon will be fine). They are a pleasure to own with their frequently large, showy flowers.
