TOF3759 | | Cattleya bowringiana Imperialis 'Natural World' x self Belize and Guatemala.
| | |
|
| | The most northern-growing Cattleya species – growing sometimes epiphytically on trees, or frequently on rocks and cliffs in ravines. You may have caught that we are fond of this species, because it blooms at the time of our big County Fair Orchid Show in late September early October and is very showy. Imperialis, I think, just refers to the size of the plant – it is the largest variety in our collection. Heads of 15 to 25 three-inch lavender flowers if the plant is grown large. | |

TOF3781 | | Cattleya jenmanii Coerulea 'Kathy's' AM/AOS x self Venezuela.
| | |
|
Gallery | | Each seedling from the original flask came out a little differently, though all beautiful and with the coerulea color. One of them, with large flowers and a particularly beautiful lip, received an Award of Merit of 85 points in Oct. 2017. I'm sure there will variation in the offspring of this selfing, but it is a heck of a good place to begin! I remind you that the story is; that only a single coerulea plant was ever found in nature. Don't forget the wonderful fragrance, the best of all the Cattleya species I think. | | | | 2.00" pot / Very limited | $13.00 |

TOF3993 | | Cattleya labiata tipo `Koa Log' x sib. Brazil.
| | |
|
| | (C. labiata 'Koa Log' x sib 'Flame Lip')
Three to five 5" fragrant flowers in these parents - good bright colors. 'Flame Lip' Photo
The "type" species for the genus. "The Crimson Cattleya" or the "Ruby-Lipped Cattleya.
For good reason we want to keep this going. It is easier to grow and maintain than some others, is dependable, showy, and flowers last well. For us, it also was very useful for our Maui County Fair Show, at the end of September and early October. Our labiata's held up well in the harsh conditions of the 6-day setup and Show.
"When William Cattley, a patron of horticulture in Barnet, England, flowered a large lavender orchid in November 1818, he started one of the most intense collecting adventures in horticultural history — an adventure that led to the introduction of a whole group of large-flowered lavender orchids that would dominate the orchid world and the public’s perception of orchids for the next 150 years." (Chadwick Orchids)
"Perhaps their ease of culture can be explained, to some extent, by their natural environment, which is extraordinarily inhospitable much of the year" (L.C. Menezes, Cattleya labiata autumnalis)
We have both of these parent plants growing outdoors mounted on Koa logs. | | | | 2.00" pot Three only | $12.00 |

TD422 | | Chondrorhyncha caloglossa 'Natural World' Costa Rica.
| | |
|
| | Correctly Stenotyla picta. This is really a neat plant - one of my favorites within the fan-shaped leafy species. This flowers a lot and puts on a good show (flowers emerge and can be seen, they are not hiding in the foliage. (Good to hang it up or mount it, if possible - for good display). Moderate-size species - not gigantic like some. In this cultivar, the flowers are all-yellow. | |
