Cattleya Callistoglossa var. coerulea
Lovely five inch flowers reflect the parentage of this primary hybrid, which is warscewiczii x purpurata. This grex was registered in 1882 by Veitch, although the original cross was made by Seden. This offered plant, bred much later, was made with the coerulea parents, resulting in tinted blue petals and a lip broadly marked with slate blue. Plant height, when in bloom is under 24 inches.

The purpurata parent instilled good tolerance of cold and wet. Our hanging-pot mother plant came through the cold wet Winters of 2023 and 2024 much better than most other Cattleya hybrid species and hybrids. It had just a few small brown spots on the leaves. Blooming-size divisions from our mother plant (Three plants available as of July 2026). . Temperature Tolerant. August - September blooming.
