Cattleya orchids, often called the ‘Queen of Orchids’ or ‘Corsage Orchids’, are renowned for their stunning, often fragrant, and long-lasting blooms. These epiphytic plants thrive on a coarse, well-draining, and airy potting mix, preferring moderate to high humidity (50-80%) and bright, indirect light to encourage prolific flowering.

Optimal day temperatures range from 21C to 27C (70F to 80F), with a crucial night-time temperature drop of 5-10C (10-15F) to stimulate flower production. Watering is critical: allow the potting medium to dry out almost completely between waterings to prevent root rot. Fertilize weekly during active growth with a balanced orchid-specific fertilizer at 1/4 to 1/2 strength.
