Brassocattleya Amethyst
Elegant blossoms grace this intergeneric primary hybrid, from the cross between Brassavola cullculata and Cattleya purpurata. The sturdy foliage of this resilient plant is of a terete (succulent-like) texture and grows nicely compact.

With slender petals gracefully arching outward these flowers have a range of hues between cream-white and shell pink tints. This cross was fist done in the 1980s, but when we remade it we used an alba-white Cattleya purpurata, accentuating the contrast of the lip markings that come from that parent's lineage; like the seedling pictured above some have bright pink lips.

Cattleya alaorii
This charming species is one of the more rare examples of the ultra-miniature Cattleya group referred to as "hadrolaelias". This petite species was first collected growing epiphytically in the coastal state of Bahia, Brazil. The foliage of the plants is small, approximately standing only four inches tall! The flowers open to form a distinctive cupped shape with the 'front' about one inch in diameter, and are a soft crystalline pink with a slightly darker pink lip. A delightful addition to a miniature collection, or as a companion plant to outdoor orchids! Previously classified as a Laelia.

Cattleya labiata fma. coerulea
These seedlings are that rare 'coerulea' blue** color-form of this beautiful Brazilian species. The shapely flowers have a delicate off-white hue of lavender-blue tint and a contrasting lip of amethyst-purple with yellow at the throat. Delicate Fragrance. Since the long cold wet Winters of 2023 and 2024, we have been growing these seedlings in our heated greenhouse, where they have been much happier. We expect it would also do well as a window-sill plant (twice as much light as a phal) and under lights (as long as lights are seasonally adjusted for day-length).

**Orchids of coerulea color-form are often called "blue", which confuses many orchid admirers, since most actually look purple, not blue. "Coerulea" orchids lack the genes responsible for red flower color, and their 'cooler' overall coloration makes them distinct. This genetic trait is even more rare than orchid albinism and typically produces blooms with some combination of white, purple, and green.

We hope some will be blooming for our Fall Open House November 7-9, 2025. Cattleya fans might visit SBOE on Friday the 7th and then head down to Huntington Gardens on November 8th for the Inaugural Cattleya Symposium presented by Huntington Gardens and The Orchid Digest.
