Laeliocattleya Victor Juan

Laeliocattleya Victor Juan

A hybrid from C. dowiana and L. undulata, showcasing the distinctive morphology of both parents: broad, heavily undulated petals and sepals with strongly ruffled, recurved margins, and a large, flared trilobed lip with a prominently ruffled midlobe. Typically produces multiple blooms per stem, each with a wide, open face and an expressive, almost theatrical floral structure.

  • Light: Bright indirect light with 30–50% shade cloth; good light levels are essential for reliable blooming and strong color expression.
  • Temperature: Intermediate to warm-growing; thrives between 62–86°F (17–30°C). Protect from temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
  • Humidity: 50–70%; ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings. Reduce slightly after new growth matures.

Additional Notes:

Grow in a well-draining bark mix in a pot sized to the root system. A slight temperature drop at night encourages blooming. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
