Cattleya Les Houches Male
Default Cattleya Les Houches
C. Les Houches (C. Edithiae x C. Neige) an old hybrid that dates back to 1945.
It is nothing special, won't win me any silverware but I inherited it from my parents when they were growers and Les Houches has always been a faithful bloomer season after season.
Good beginners orchid, can take abuse and still bloom.
