Common name: Brassocattleya Orchid
Kingdom: Plantae
Family: Orchidaceae
Genus: Brassocattleya
Origin: Hybrid (derived from South American species)

Light:
Bright, indirect light to bright light. Can handle some direct sun, especially morning or late afternoon. Strong light is important for healthy growth and blooming.

Water:
Allow the growing medium to dry slightly between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let excess drain fully. Typically once a week, adjusting based on environment. Do not let roots sit in water.

Fertilizer:
With active growth (even in winter) we recommend using a fertilizer based for foliage plants like Bios Nutrients, Gaia green 444 or fish fertilizer.

Pet Safe:
Generally considered non-toxic to pets, however ingestion is not recommended. Keep out of reach of curious pets and children.

Additional Notes:

• Prefers moderate humidity

• Has pseudobulbs that store water, making it more drought-tolerant than some orchids

• Use a chunky, well-draining orchid mix (bark, charcoal, perlite)

• Repot every 1–2 years or when the medium breaks down

• Benefits from good airflow

• Known for fragrant, star-shaped blooms with a classic Cattleya influence
