Syn. Cattleya pumila

Alba form of the species. Crystalline white.

L. pumila is a dwarf species whose flowers tend to dwarf the plant itself. Cute, compact, easy to grow, perfect for mounting.

Grown from seed.

Plants Available: Two plants currently available. The first plant pictured is the smaller of the two offered. The second plant available is a size up from the plant pictured, growing in two directions.

Orchid Care: Grow in bright light and high humidity, with good air circulation. Water heavily during active growth (spring and summer), but ensure roots dry rapidly after. Reduce water in the cooler months, just as plants would get less rain in their natural habitat. Mount plants or pot them in a mid-large aggregate Cattleya mix, tree fern chunks, or wine corks.

Note: Tolerant of a range of temperatures, from short periods near-freezing to hot and tropical.
