Cattleya cernua
 

in bloom again - there is a hidden 3rd bud. This year I have 4 new growths, hopefully all will have blooms. 1 down, 3 to go. It spent summer outdoors and hasn't received a lot of fertiliser.
This was my project catt ( sophronitis cernua ) and a lot has happened since then - its grown considerably and I have flasks of my own selfing due in the next month or so.

Such a pretty little flower!

Nice healthy plant, great orange flowers. Congrats!

Looks good! How do you water your cernua? It looks mounted and I'm assuming you're growing it inside!

Wonderful!

That's a beefy little plant. Looks like you have cernua culture perfected.

Awesome. This is a great plant. I watered mine by soaking it in a bucket of rain water and fertilizer until I for got about it for a couple of days. Now, no more ceruna. I can't seem to find them anywhere either. I was hoping H&R would offer them again but no such luck. Yours seem to like the cork. Mine was mounted on tree fern and it did well too. Just don't leave it in a fucket of water for a few days.

Beautiful plant, beautifully grown. The gray of the cork is the perfect backdrop for those dark green leaves and those salmon/orange blooms. SO pretty!

Very nice! I love this species and look forward to hearing about your seedlings.

So cute! I just ordered one from Gold Country Orchids and I'm super excited. Can you elaborate on your conditions? Especially, how cold does it get in your culture?

Thanks!
