Through The Lens || Cattleya aclandiae

[@orchidsandalcohol1792]

Oh I just love this species! I can’t resist a bitty spotted Catt, and the bifoliates are my fav. This is definitely the best video I’ve seen on the aclandiae, btw. Great info and the way you put it together was very easy to understand. (And your cat is super adorable!)

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Crescent city orchids OMG Same here! I LOVE bifoliate cattleyas! Thank you for the comment, it means a ton to me!!! Happy Growing! 🍃 :D

[@azdesertorchids8758]

Wow, the roots on that plant were off the hook! I love Svo by the way; thanks for helping to bring some quality plants into the hobby.

Ajay Mathew Good to be back! Happy Growing 😁

[@Plantsfaire]

This is beautiful. Until I am comfortable to care for this type of cattleya, I will hold off- I have a few baby cattleyas that I am learning to grow now, when they give me their first blooms, I can say that I can try other species in my type of environment. Thank you. This had been on my wish list. I am a follower now, I hope you make more current videos. 🙂

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Rodrigo Melo Thanks for tuning in and watching! C. tigrina is in my Top 5 Cattleya species, it's super rad :D! Happy Growing and thanks for the good wishes LOL

[@lindaannb]

Great information! You relieved my anxiety about the light leaf color and deep purple spotting.

[@JoeyMrTurbo]

I just ordered the 3inch C. aclandiae f. alba (C. aclandiae f. alba 'SVO' AM/AOS x self) from you guys..... hopefully it blooms half as nice as the alba in this video. So excited!

[@brad823]

Hey! I'm from Brazil and yours aclandiae are very beautiful!!! Congratulations!!!!

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Thank you! These Cattleya aclandiae are grown at Sunset Valley Orchids, in California by Fred Clarke. He's great!

[@bernardcooley2473]

Thanks foe sharing. You don,t mention as to whether high humidity is necessary for this species grown outside would 45 5 humidity be enough ?

[@denisesorchidparadise1411]

awesome video, great information Thank you so much

[@thaillling9369]

Best video ever please do a schilleriana spotlight :)

[@Daytrippernight001]

Hi Jose,i love this video so much. I want to ask,whats the age-maturity when the this Cattleya blooming?

[@cidaqueirozorquideasevariedade]

[@trufion1135]

Sorry,what is “foodcandles”?? Otherwise very nice video,informative🙏👍i just bought her,mount her on wood branch so hope she will be good. Thanx for great video!!!

[@Keiravee]

Yay new video! Amazing plant. I was wondering its name last time I was at the greenhouse because it smelled so divine. Do you have any division of this beauty at SVO? I’ll be there next week :D Vivian

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Keiravee Not at the moment, we had seedlings but they are no longer available. Sorry! We are going to be having some very nice C. aclandiae hybrids that are going to be great! I'll show them to you next week!

[@Keiravee]

The Orchid Geek oh great!!! I’m excited 😊

[@carlossilveiragarden]

É uma das espécies mais lindas aqui do Brasil.

[@orchideen5860]

[@dgatez73]

Holy roots!!!

[@southfloridaorchidsoutdoor8497]

I have this beauty crossed with hippodamia 🤘🏽

[@TheOrchidGeek]

I ADORE THAT CROSS! The flowers are always rewarding :)

[@jasonzachary7691]

Heyyyy, got here from OrchidAdventure video link...Heard that you work in SVO? :D I was actually looking through some of your product list. I'm very interested in 2 Catasetum hybrids and 2 Paph hybrids. Just wondering how big in size are those plants might be? Seedling? Plug, or near mature BS ? Thanks!

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Hey Jason! Thanks for your patience and also for reaching out to me! Our Paphiopedilum Plants are near blooming size while many of our catasetums are already blooming Size & ready to go into 4" inch pots. Happy Growing!

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

For whatever reason, the spotted Cattleyas just don't do it for me (except C. amethystoglossa, which is twice as weird that I like it because I'm not a fan of pink either). And I can't believe you suggested that it is OK to use tap water on orchids! OMG! 😛 Cute kitty, he looks pretty comfy in that pile of blankets.

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Michael McCarthy it's alright, I have some friends who hate the spots because it makes them think of Chicken Pox haha And I wouldn't say "recommend" but if you only have access to Tap, at least use a Fertilizer that will help your plant get what it needs. Thank you so much! I'm sure Cheetos was super comfy LOL!😁😄

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

I was only joking about tap water, I use it. I only filter it to take out the really bad stuff (chlorine/chloramine and heavy metals) and let the rest be, but my tap isn't so bad either. 🙂

[@TheOrchidGeek]

Michael McCarthy I use Tap too! Thankfully my city's Tap isn't too Bad either, otherwise I might have to treat it. I have been thinking about setting up a Reverse Osmosis unit but IDK 🤔 time will tell :P

[@igaes0293]

For sale??

[@yeseniaenglish1785]

Thanks for the info :)

[@ArtistBrianSheffield]

Nice. Single color catts are not my favorite. Dig that variable color pattern.

[@cristiansequeria4520]
