C. Gaudii 'Cinnamon Scent' x C. Black Jack 'Universal' | BS | 5"pot

Cattleya Gaudii 'Cinnamon Scent' × Cattleya Black Jack 'Universal' is an incredibly exciting, dark bifoliate cross designed for collectors who crave deep, dramatic jewel tones and rich, complex fragrances. As a seedling cross, each plant represents a unique genetic combination, promising an elite population of robust, space-saving orchids with high visual impact.

This hybrid beautifully blends the premium traits of its standout parents:

• The Pod Parent (C. Gaudii 'Cinnamon Scent'): Highly prized for its waxy, heavy-substanced blooms that feature glossy, bronze-mahogany to chocolate-toned petals and a striking magenta lip. True to its cultivar name, it passes down an intense, delicious spice-infused fragrance.

• The Pollen Parent (C. Black Jack 'Universal'): Famous for injecting some of the darkest, most saturated genetics into modern breeding. It contributes deep, velvety burgundy-black coloration and a beautifully flat, overlapping floral arrangement.

Buyers can expect compact, sturdy plants with upright, bifoliate pseudobulbs topped with thick, leathery leaves. The resulting seedlings will typically produce clusters of heavy, long-lasting blooms in sultry shades of deep chocolate-crimson, midnight plum, or dark burgundy, finished with a velvety, contrasting purple lip. Emitting a powerful, warm cinnamon and sweet floral perfume during the day, this cross is a phenomenal choice for growers looking to add a touch of dark luxury and exceptional fragrance to their collection.
