Does Cattleya Nice Holiday 'Suntopia' bloom twice a year?
What it says on the tin! This Catt seems beautiful and compact and was wondering if it was a twice a year bloomer or just a springtime one. If you have experience with this cultivar, a small description of the fragrance would be much appreciated too! Thank you in advance.
It's a fairly complex hybrid, with ancestors that bloom at different times. The result can be blooming more than once a year, or it could be once a year with the time being some sort of average of the constituent species. So... the best way to find out? Grow it and see what it does! And if it doesn't bloom twice this year while it is getting accustomed to its now home, it could be different next year. Too many factors for an accurate prediction.
