I find Cattleya aclandiae and tigrina to be super sexy
Great choice MFN. Once the growing area has sub-tropical to tropical conditions - and maybe maintaining gentle movement in there, and having fair control of the amount of water in and around the roots ------ your catts will grow very nicely. My recommendation for starter package is --- get the ones that are on your 'wish list'. We know you have a wish list hehehe
It's awesome how you're thinking of growing catts.
