Oh, how did I miss THIS beauty!
They love to take their time to bloom, but that colour 😍 such amazing shade of bright red! I’d also call it the red cattleya for the ease. It’s a real tongue twister to pronounce!

Yea... She made me like Cattleyas more. But they have to be small and controllable :P
Good to hear, they deserve all the love. My smallest variety hasn’t bloomed since I bought it in bloom, but bigger varieties bloom quite regularly. I think maybe I’ll slowly get rid of all the smaller, non blooming orchids and make room for more Cattleyas 😁😇
Which is the smallest? I like how the big ones look, but I just don't have the space for them. So I stick to smaller...
Though some orchid got to the annoyingly big size and I am having troubles with them.
Maybe move some out? The weather in Portugal should be hot enough for them, no?
This is the smallest one I have. Seriously, I don’t think it should be this small, as the older canes are bigger, but the new ones are getting smaller and smaller. Think I’ll move it to my south facing windowsill this year.
Oh no.. they would cook alive out there. I even have to protect some cacti from the sun cause it is too much for them.
They could live outside if I had a shaded garden for example. But not on the balcony.
Ohhh that is a really tiny one! And the flowers are ery pretty too.
Ahh, I see. Balcony not so cooperative 😉
The flowers are gorgeous- when they show up 😂 Maybe one day. I’ll no doubt will write about it when it happens!
