Cattleyas are among the most popular orchids in home culture. These plants are either epiphytic or lithophytes and come the tropics of Central and South America. Cattleyas are generally fairly easy to grow and flower. The Cattleya has often been called the Queen of Orchids. While no longer the reigning queen of the orchid floral industry it is difficult not to be impressed by a well-flowered Cattleya. No longer limited to white and various shades of lavender and purple, high quality flowers are available in the entire color spectrum (except true blue) and in a wide range of plant sizes. Most Cattleyas and their relatives are easy to grow. With reasonable care, they can be grown anywhere in the world. As we head towards the end of January 2019, many of your orchids are now in their growing phase. Remember to feed them regularly with a growing fertiliser.
