Cattleya Orchid [Cattleya spp.]

Product Description Aloha! I’m the Cattleya Orchid — the queen of tropical blooms. Known for my spectacular flowers and rich fragrance, I’ve been a favorite in Hawaii since the 19th century, adding beauty and elegance to weddings, leis, and island celebrations. My blossoms can reach up to 6 inches across and come in an array of stunning colors like purple, pink, yellow, and white. When I bloom (usually late winter to spring), it’s a floral event worth celebrating. And yes — I’m fragrant too! Despite my glamorous appearance, I’m not fussy. I prefer bright, indirect light and good air circulation. You don’t need a greenhouse to keep me happy — just a bright spot and some love. What You’ll Get One (1) Cattleya orchid, potted in a 2-inch starter pot. These young orchids are not yet in bloom but are growing strong and ready to thrive. Care Tips Light: Bright, indirect sunlight Water: Water when medium dries slightly; don’t overwater Fertilizer: Orchid fertilizer every 2–3 weeks during growing season Growth Rate: Slow — blooms in 1 to 3 years Other Notes: Use well-draining orchid mix; provide good airflow
