Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range Warm 90-70°F, cooler season Cool-Intermediate 75-58°F. This plant is growing as an epiphyte on a large mango tree. If pot culture is utilized, the pot should be large enough to accommodate several years growth, as this species produces a long rhizome between pseudobulbs. Culture is generally as for the genus Cattleya.
Comments: Parent plant: Medium-sized plant.
