Additional Info
Growing in an east window is ideal, as the early morning sun is very important. However, a south window will also be suitable, so long as the plant is provided with light shading from the middle of February to the end of October using a sheer curtain.
Cattleya should be watered when the potting medium feels dry almost to the bottom of the pot. This generally occurs every week or so from the previous watering.
When repotting your Cattleya during the active growing season, do not water the media for at least 7 days. This allows cuts and breaks in the roots to callous and avoid rotting upon being watered.
