Looking for a unique orchid to add to your collection? Consider the stunning Cattleya purpurata var. schusteriana, also known as "The Purple-Stained Laelia." This captivating Brazilian native boasts large, fragrant flowers with a distinctive bluish-lavender and deeper blue-purple lip, a rare find in the Cattleya family. It's sure to be a conversation starter and a favorite among orchid enthusiasts. Bring home a piece of Brazil's "Queen of Orchids" today!

Flower pics are representational and not pictures of the actual plant itself. I currently have a couple of these and will select the best one to send.

Grow these similarly to any Cattleya with a little more water. Med to bright indirect light and water every 2-4 days as the medium dries out, based on your environment's humidity.
