C. Heathii x dolosa

Regular price $26.00

This is a hybrid between the tipo (regular pink/lavender color forms) of these heirloom Cattleya hybrids. Cattleya Heathii is a primary hybrid that was registered in 1907 between C. loddigesii and C. walkeriana. The flowers are like a full, round loddigesii on a much more compact plant. Cattleya dolosa has been classified as a naturally occurring hybrid between C. loddigesii and C. walkeriana and also as a separate species over the years. Regardless of the result of taxonomy debate, it is a very nice compact plant that produces walkeriana-like flowers. So, what is this hybrid exactly? We're going to go with a cross between two different plants and the result should be great looking pink flowers on nice robust compact plants.

(About 1-2 years from blooming size.)
