Cattleya Dormant Eyes Black
I recently acquired a Lc. Taida Swan 'Swan' and noticed that all the dormant eyes are black. I purchased this cattleya from a local nursery and the owner had just divided this orchid. i purchased the division with the newer growths. I know some people ascribe the black eyes to the poor condition of the roots, though this is not the case as there are plenty of healthy roots. My question is will this cattleya to put out new growth? There does not appear to be any viable growths as far as I can tell. I couldn't find any information on this topic as most of the thread I searched referred to a few black eyes, not all of them.
