Spotted Catt Species
What are the species of cattleya (alliance too I guess, but differentiate) that are spotted? Picture examples would be cool to post too.

Here are the primary spotted Cattleya species:
C. aclandiae--used in most spotted Catt hybrids c. guttata/leopoldii C. schilleriana Important primary hybrids for spotted catts are: C. Landate: guttata x aclandiae Lc. Jungle Elf: esalqueana x aclandiae C. Facelis: bicolor x aclandiae C. Brabantiae: aclandiae x loddigesii |
Pretty much all of the brasilian bifoliates except those in sections Rhizantha and Intermedia can be spotted. As for a complete list of potentially spotted species:
aclandiae amethystoglossa bicolor elongata granulosa guttata harrisoniana leopoldii loddigesii porphyroglossa schilleriana schofeldiana tenuis velutina Those are the species I know to be spotted. I think that there may be occasional clones of C. intermedia with speckles, but it isn't really a breeding characteristic common to the species, and C. harrisoniana and loddigesii are also not really known for breeding spots, though they can be quite speckled, sometimes. -Cj |
