Watering
      In Nature, the exposed roots of Cattleya dry out quickly after rain showers. That means their planting material must drain easily and dry out promptly. Their roots need lots of air or they will rot. The clay pebbles of our Hydroponic System are perfect for this!

      To establish an accurate watering schedule, make sure system is completely dry before rewatering. This could be a week after the gauge reads empty! Always error on the "dry side" with these plants. Don't be too concerned about hitting the exact day - established plants are very forgiving in our system.

      During the summer growing season, Cattleya orchids will drink a lot more water than other times of the year.

       Cattleya aclandiae is found growing on tree limbs and trunks in the Brazilian state of Bahia. It has a very small natural range and is found growing in the wind southwest of Salvador on elevated plateaus that border the drainage of the Paraguaca River. Its native habitat is seasonally dry forests between 100 and 400 meters in elevation near permanent bodies of water.

       Cattleya aclandiae is compact and only grows 3-5 in. (7-12 cm) tall. The upright, short, cylindrical pseudobulbs have two fleshy leaves at the apex. Sometimes, purple blotches are found on the leaves when the plants are exposed to intense sunlight. Each growth produces between one and three 2.5 inches to 4 inches (6 to 10 cm) and the flowers are large for the size of the plant. Flowers are substantial, waxy, and long-lived. Flower color is white or near-white with purple blotches and spots. The lip has a dark purple blotch and the anther cap is yellow. Flowers bloom in the spring and summer on new growths.

       Cattleya aclandiae has been widely used by orchid breeders to produce compact hybrids. When crossed with other bifoliate cattleyas, the spotted pattern is present in the offspring. Hybrids of this species generally produce plants that flower two or more times per year.

       Several color varieties of Cattleya aclandiae are known. A coerulea form is available in the orchid trade. The 'Rubra' varieties exhibit intensely deep rose lips with very large dark spots on petals and sepals, these spots often coalescing to appear almost solid deep chocolate brown. The 'alba' varieties have petals and sepals of clear lime green with snow white lips. 'Albescen' varieties have sepals and petals of light green with very pastel spots and white lips with little or no color. The more common forms of Cattleya aclandiae have sepal and petal background colors that range from clear green with dark spots to quite yellow with dark spots. The spotting pattern may be bold, almost solid in some clones to more 'peppered', with lips ranging from light rose to deep rose-purple.

Type of Growing

      Cattleya orchid is growing is Sympodial-type. Rhizome will grow in the horizontal. And artificial stem (Rhizome) of the joints is responsible for collecting food,  have 2 node which is above the base of the Rhizome. A broken eye peak is most easily, if fully recovered, cattleya orchids are broken out out passive until full pot Rhizome ship there. There may be one or two leaves a thick.

Type of Roots

      Cattleya. A Semi-aerial rootst system. Which absorb food from plants and air. Some root may protrude outside the pot, a little. A bouquet of flowers cattleya will balance at the end of the Rhizome, each flower, there may be only one or several flowers. (subject to wheels in some belts) the flowers Cattleya.
