Laelia praestans var. concolor

A Southeastern Brazilian miniature Laelia species that typically flowers in a 3" pot size. This variety grows best in warm conditions in low to medium light levels. This is a good plant for small containers or being mounted on a slab. It also is fragrant, which is not always the case for the smaller-flowered Laelia/Cattleya species! In Latin, concolor means 'of uniform color throughout', hence the flowers having the same color petals and lip.

It is also worth noting that this species tends to have some yellow discoloration or brown spots on the foliage.

This batch should reach blooming size by the spring of 2025.
