Cattleya maxima f. semialba ('Angel' x 'Rolando')

This striking Cattleya maxima f. semialba represents a cross between two selected clones, 'Angel' and 'Rolando', resulting in exceptional genetic diversity and highly variable flowering characteristics that make each specimen unique.

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light with some direct morning sunlight to promote robust pseudobulb development and abundant flowering.
• Temperature: Prefers warm conditions with temperatures between 20-28°C (68-82°F). Benefits from slight nighttime temperature drops to encourage blooming.
• Humidity: Requires moderate to high humidity levels of 60-75% with excellent air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when growing medium approaches dryness. Allow complete drainage between waterings and reduce frequency during winter rest period.

Additional Notes

Features the classic semialba form with white petals and sepals contrasting against a vibrant purple lip. Due to the selected clone parentage ('Angel' x 'Rolando'), flowering can vary significantly in size, color intensity, and lip patterning, offering collectors the excitement of discovering each plant's individual expression.
