Cattleya percivaliana 'Mendenhall-Summit' 4N x Laelia alaorii
Hard to find primary hybrid. We have combined our polyploid version of the Christmas orchid with the itty bitty species Laelia alaorii. These will be very dwarf with light lavender-pink blooms.
Plants are in 2.5" pots. Since one parent is a miniature we expect these to flower within 18-24 months.
