cattleya nakornchaisri red

I recently acquired a new lil Catt off a Etsy blindbox. However, when I tried to do some research, there doesn't seem to be much information about this particular Catt hybrid. I'm wondering if anyone here has some experience or more detailed information on this hybrid, especially on the size and growth patterns. It is supposedly a pretty new cultivar. 🙂

It is a complex hybrid.

Do you know how often it blooms? If just once a year, you could probably just follow the C. dowiana culture.

Yup, that should be it. Now I'll go research about C. dowiana!

Dowiana culture can be a little intimidating... I'm sure your hybrid is quite forgiving. I'd just go with general cattleya care.

Okay, I'm sure that'll save me a lot of stress. Anyways, it seemed like it can bloom 2-3 times a year too but I'm not that sure since I only saw one online vendor claim that. But yes I'll stick with general cattleya care for now.

Good luck with it!
