Cattleya intermedia var. alba
 

Here's my C. intermedia alba in full bloom. C. intermedia has two races, one of tall plants (50cm or more), which is from my region and has few varieties, and another, of short plants, from Brazil south, where most of the desirable varieties are found.

OMG how many flowers are on that plant!?! That is spectacular!! I made the first photo my computer wallpaper because it is so pretty!

Good shape, Rosim. Nice plant also.

What a beauty!

Does the tall plant tend to have more blooms each spike? I have found a tall clone named Breckenridge Snow has more flowers than the common short plants.

Wow! hope i can grow catts as good as you! (just got my first ones last week)

Thank you all for the nice comments!


There are eight flowers, Becky!

It is common that the taller plants have more flowers on the spike than the shorter ones, Pheli, but this is not mandatory.


Most of them are easy to keep, Wgama! I am sure you will find them rewarding plants!!

Thanks for the reply, Mauro.
I am just looking for some of the tall plants of C. intermedia alba. Hope I can find some great clones of them.

Gorgeous Mauro!! Gonna have to find me one!!

Watch out WGAMA, Catts can be pretty addictive!!
