Cattleya orchids typically feature heavily fragrant flowers that come in a wide variety of shapes and colour combinations. Many of the species produce quite large blooms that stretch several inches across while others have smaller but no less beautiful blooms. The blooming frequency of the plant depends on its flower size. The larger the flower, the less frequently it will bloom. Their flowers last for usually from 15-20 days.

Cattleya purpurata var. striata is a striking and highly sought-after orchid variety. It is a naturally occurring variety of Cattleya purpurata, a species native to Brazil. What sets Cattleya purpurata var. striata apart are its distinct striated or striped patterns on the petals and sepals, which add to its exotic and captivating appearance.

The flowers of this variety typically feature a combination of rich purples, pinks, and whites, with intricate striations or lines running across the petals and sepals. These unique markings make it a favorite among orchid collectors and enthusiasts.

Like other orchids, Cattleya purpurata var. striata has specific care requirements, including proper light, humidity, and temperature conditions. Ensuring the right care is essential to encourage healthy growth and vibrant blooms in this exquisite orchid variety.

Cattleya orchids usually only flower once a year with the time frame varying by species, though some hybrids, especially those crossed with Laelia orchids, have been cultivated to bloom more than once. Cattleya orchids are not difficult to care for, and even beginners can find success with getting them to flower. They make lovely houseplants, but they can also live outside year-round in tropical climates and during the warmer months in areas that experience frost.

Please refer plant pictures for size reference.

Note: The plants may or may not contain flowers or buds. There are chances that the buds/flowers could dry up due to transit stress even though we pack them with extreme care. The local climatic conditions and fertilization habits can affect the brightness & colour intensity of flowers. While we make every effort to match the actual colours of the flowers, the photographs may not be the exact representation, due to different monitor settings
