Cattleya maxima var. coerulea

#orchid #flowers #gardening #nature #bloomscrolling #photography #macrophotopraphy 📷🌱🌴🪴sky

Cattleya orchids typically don’t flower for the following reasons:

Insufficient light (maybe not in your case with the sunburn)
Insufficient water/fert
Insufficient maturity
Lack of rest period

Consistency in care will help (which I am not as good about).

3 red compact Cattleya flowers

All the flowers are open on this orchid now.

It’s definitely seasonal as Cymbidiums flower typically from late autumn to spring. Also it may depend on your location.
