C. Star Parade 'Volcano Queen'

Normally for all our mature Cattleyas we pot them up into a 5.5" pot.  For this variety we used a slightly smaller pot at 5" since the plant is more compact and has smaller flowers. This is the first bloom for this plant.

• Plant Stage:  With Buds/Blooms
• Compact Plant:  Smaller 3" blooms
• Produces Beautiful Star Shaped light Pink flowers
• Fragrance: Yes, light sweet scent
• Blooming Season: Winter-Spring
• Average Plant Height: 10-12"
• Pot Size: 5"

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.
