Here is one of my Catasetums
This one is flowering right now, it is dark brown/purple almost black and is sooooo beautiful!
By the way; the brown one is Catasetum vinaceum x osculatum and the white one is Joao Stivali albo, the third and fourth are Catasetum expansum x saccatum.
Look for more pictures and culture tips at: Aalbers Orchids, the Catasetum, Coryanthes and Mormodes page also in english!
Mike

Mike, your Catasetum are sensational.
Thanks for that link. I'm not giving up on my 3, sad looking excuses that I've been failing with, so far. Eventually....

Hello Sandy,
I assume your Catasetums do not grow so well, may I ask what temperature and light you grow them? How many backbulbs do they have and do you repot every year?
