Cattleya aclandiae is a species of orchid that is native to Brazil. It is an epiphytic orchid, meaning that it grows on trees and other plants in the wild, rather than in soil. In cultivation, it is often grown in pots or baskets with a well-draining, bark-based potting mix.
To care for Cattleya aclandiae, it is important to provide the following:
-
Bright, indirect light. This orchid prefers bright, indirect light, such as that found in a south- or west-facing window. Avoid placing it in direct sun, as this can damage the leaves and flowers.
-
Good air circulation. Cattleya aclandiae requires good air circulation to thrive. Make sure that the plant has plenty of space around it and consider using a fan to improve air circulation.
-
High humidity. Like many orchids, Cattleya aclandiae prefers high humidity, ideally between 50-70%. You can increase the humidity around the plant by misting it regularly or placing it on a tray filled with pebbles and water.
-
Regular watering. Water Cattleya aclandiae regularly, allowing the potting mix to dry out slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as this can cause the roots to rot.
-
Fertilization. Feed Cattleya aclandiae with a balanced orchid fertilizer during the growing season, following the instructions on the package for dilution and frequency.
