This particular clone, C. Persepolis 'Splendor' is at a mature blooming stage. The parental cross for this clone is C. Kittiwake x C. Pegi Mayne. This orchid is planted in a 5 1/2” pot and will produce 4-5” blooms as shown in the product photo. Cattleyas are often annual bloomers. This variety tends to be a winter season bloomer. This plant is NOT currently in bud or flowering now.
General orchid care for Cattleyas include a temperature range of 75-85F during the day and 60F at night. 40-60% humidity is recommended. Bright, shaded light south-east or south-west exposure. Check the media and water only when dry (about 1-2 times/week). We recommend fertilizing with a high phosphorus & potassium slow release blend to develop big blooms. As with all orchids, good air movement is essential. Repot these mature size orchids every 2 years.

Great plant. Big and well grown. Growing out of the pot with new leads on front and back bulbs. Well worth the price. Akatsuka's reputation as one of the premier orchid growers is well deserved.
