Ctna. Why Not (Yellow Form)




Ctna. Why Not (Yellow Form)
(Guarianthe aurantiaca x Broughtonia sanguinea)
Yellow form of the hybrid. This plant is half Broughtonia—well, suited for bright, dry conditions, and great for mounting. Mature plants flower multiple times a year.
Grown from seed, so flower characteristics will vary somewhat from plant to plant.
Plants Available: Growing in plugs, 3” pots, and 4” pots.
Plugs (Plug Pack) are sold as a pack of three plants. Examples of the individual plugs are pictured. Plugs may be nearly blooming-size or blooming-size (Yes—we bloom this variety as a plug!).
The 3" Pot option may be blooming-size or mature.
The 4" Pot option may be blooming-size or mature.
The 4" Pot - Lg option is a mature plant with two or more directions of growth.
Orders for any of the above will be filled with plants in spike/bud/bloom as stock permits.
Orchid Care: As for Cattleya hybrids—grow bright and dry. In general, plants may be grown potted or mounted.* We recommend mounting or baskets as plants outgrow 3” or 4” pots. Provide very bright, indirect light. Allow potting media to dry between watering. Fertilize weakly, weekly.
*For plugs, plants are shipped straight out of the plug tray and should be potted within days of receipt. We use a medium to large grade bark mix (as for Cattleyas) and recommend this or similar for the substrate.
