Orchid of the day: Cattleya Love Knot (formerly Laeliocattleya (LC) Love Knot

Cattleya Love Knot


I've posted about this orchid on February 8th, 2014. At that time, we called it Laeliocattleya (LC) Love Knot but now it is called Cattleya Love Knot. The seed parent is Cattleya sincorana and the pollen parent is Cattleya walkeriana. The orchid was doing very well that we split it into 2 pots and we are happy to say, both are producing flowers this year!


B) April 26th, 2015. One of the pots with 2 buds.

C) A side by side comparison of both pots on April 26th. 

D) A close up of the blooms on April 29th.

E) It wouldn't take long before the two buds on the left will open up.

F) May 9th, all flowers opened. What beautiful flowers.


Never a dull moment in my household with regards to flowering orchids. I have a few waiting to be posted in my blog. Some seem to be flowering at the same time. Another post will be following soon!
