**Please note: These plants will lose their leaves just before, while, or after flowering as they go dormant for a short period after blooming. The foliage will turn yellow and fall off. If you order one in spike, you may receive one with foliage starting to turn yellow.
Catasetum are fascinating orchids because of their unique flowers that have ‘trigger pollen’. When the pollen trigger is touched, pollen will instantly shoot out and stick onto whatever set the trigger off, which in the wild are orchid bees, also known as ‘euglossine bees’.
Catasetenae are seasonal growers. You can read about their culture HERE
It should be noted that because this is an unbloomed hybrid color results may vary between the two parents. Blooms are expected to be open early to mid September.
