Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
Comments: Parent plant: From Brazil. Cattleya dolosa is thought by some to be the natural hybrid (Cattleya x dolosa) of Cattleya walkeriana and Cattleya loddigesii var. harrisoniana. These species, however, have all been crossed in cultivation, and the hybrids from these crosses are very different from Cattleya dolosa. On the other hand, selfings or sibling crosses of Cattleya dolosa reportedly result in plants exactly like the parent.

| Flask Information |
| Availability: |
We have sold all of the flasks for this item. |
| You should: |
Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.
You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |
| Yield Estimate: |
30 plants (based on flask surveys done 09/16/2005 )
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 20 - 35 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 01/17/2006 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 35 mm (01/17/2006)

The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Brazil. Plants were once found near Barbacena in Minas
Gerais and in an area between Bauru and Jau in the state of São Paulo.
Recent collections have been near Uberaba in Minas Gerias and along the
Rio Tiete near Lacanga, which is north of Bauru in São Paulo. Plants
usually grow on streamside trees with Cattleya loddigesii at about 2200
ft. (670 m).
