Cattleya - Special Selected Seedlings

This page includes all selected varieties and color forms of Cattleya species, Brazilian or exotic.

 

Cattleya aclandiae x sib select

The objective here is to produce dark and good-shaped flowers like the one shows here. Plants are excellent growers.

3" - 25.00


 

Cattleya bicolor ssp. brasiliensis coerulea x self

We are pleased to finally be able to offer this unique color form of the species. This is a second generation selfing, and plants are very easy to grow. We still have a very limited quantity of these, so it will be on a first come first served basis. And please only one per customer at this point.

Cattleya eldorado concolor punctata 'Bela' x self

Flowers of the mother plant are concolor pink, except for a small darker mark on the lip, exactly like the one shown here. Flowers should very just a little, mostly repeating the color. As with all eldorados, very fragrant.

3" - 35.00


 

Cattleya eldorado magenta orlata pincelada 'Tapajós' x self

Another magnificent color form of Cattleya eldorado. Flowers are very dark with a even more contrasting lip. Selfings are the way to go to try to produce more of these, and the variation might be only in the mount of dark color on the lips. Limited.

3" - 65.00


 

Cattleya eldorado semialba 'Iracema' x self

A very rare color form of the species. Although light-colored flowers are common in Cattleya eldorado, true semi-albas are extremely rare. The selfing is a way to try to produce more of those.t.

Cattleya elongata alba x self

Cattleya elongata is rare in cultivation, especially any color forms. In this case, an unique alba was selfed aiming to produce more of those green flowers with white lips. Very limited, one per customer, please.

3" - 120.00


 

Cattleya harrisoniana x sib select

A warm growing species from Brazil that also withstand very low temperatures. Flowers can be up to 4" across and are produced up to 8 on an inflorescence. These are very good quality sister plants sibbed. Very good growers.

3" (NFS) - 20.00


 

Cattleya harrisoniana peloric 'F. Miranda' x self

Selfing of one of the few plants produced from the original selfing. As a second generation selfing, most of the plants should produce peloric flowers.

2" - 25.00


 

Cattleya intermedia coerulea x sib

This kind of cross always confirm the color, so we expect 100% coeruleas here. Shape is probably typical for the species, but as both parents had intense color, seedlings should have very showy flowers.

2" - 20.00


 

Cattleya labiata coerulea ('1017' x '1037')

The next generation of coeruleas. Both plants were produced from the 'Junior' x 'Panelas' cross, and are here sibbed to produce more of those great coeruleas. '1017' pictured here.

2" - 25.00


 

Cattleya labiata rubra integra orlata ('Z-41' x 'ZAS-1')

When we say 'rubra integra orlata' we mean lips with a full circle of dark color; pretty much this one. So here two of those were outcrossed to produce more of these exceptionally colored individuals.

3" - 45.00


 

Cattleya labiata rubra orlata ('Maravilha' x 'Veludo Escuro')

A seedling batch using two excellent rubra orlatas. Shape and color are the objective here so we are expecting more of these very dark and round labiatas, similar to this one.

3" - 45.00


 

Cattleya leopoldii 'Dark Prince' x outcross

'Dark Prince', pictured here, is one of the best dark leopoldiis available in Brazil or elsewhere. Flowers are large and have excellent shape and heavy substance. Outcrossed here with another very dark one so expectations are very high.

2" - 15.00


 

Cattleya leopoldii alba x sib

In this case, we have a sibling between two plants from the same origin, a second generation selfing of 'Fields'. This is proven to produce more albas. Flowers green with white lips. Photo of 'F2 Fields' used.

2" - 25.00


 

Cattleya leopoldii coerulea 'Miranda' x self

The selfing of an excellent coerulea (pictured here) should produce more plants with flowers of this color form. Good growers.

3" - 65.00


 

Cattleya loddigesii 4N x outcross

Outcrossing of two exceptional 4N loddigesiis, and the result expected is flowers like the one pictured here. As one of them is spotted, we are expecting the whole spectrum from no spots to a lot of them, all with excellent shape and substance

3" - 35.00


 

Cattleya loddigesii peloric x self

An unique plant of the species, flowers of the parent plant (shown here) are extremely full and flat and have those very pleasant markings on the petals. Objective is to produce more of those.

2" - 35.00


 

Cattleya lueddemaniana 'Art Chadwick' x outcross

Outcross between two excellent plants of the species. Plants are blooming with large and well-shaped flowers. This is the form with large flowers, lighter color, compact plants. 'Art Chadwick' pictured here.

4" - 25.00


 

Cattleya lueddemaniana ('Rubra' x 'Escura')

An outcross for dark-flowered lueddemannianas. The results should be very dark flowers like this one, but with variation in terms of shape and lip color pattern.

3" - 25.00


 

Cattleya lueddemaniana coerulea 'Mariauxi' x outcross

Using 'Mariauxi' to improve shape has always been the case with coeruleas, but now we outcrossed it with a light-coloed one to produce different patterns on coeruleas. In this case, there was veining added to the flowers.

3" - 25.00


 

Cattleya mossiae alba x sib select

A batch of excellent white mossiaes. Plants are excellent growers and produce large flowers on fairly small plants. A few already bloomed and flowers are pristine white with a dark yelow throat

4" - 35.00


 

Cattleya percivaliana ('Karen Graf' x 'Aniel')

Two excellent percivalianas outcrossed. 'Karen Graf' has excellent shape but smallish flowers, whereas ''Aniel' has them large and dark but still shapely. We are expecting excellent shapes and dark colors.

4" - 35.00


 

Cattleya percivaliana ('Karen Graf' x 'Summit')

Two of the best percivalianas around outcrossed to produce more high quality plants ('Summit' shown here). Flower shape is excellent in both so expectations are extremely high.

4" - 35.00


 

Cattleya schilleriana (rubra 'Tocão' x 'Caliman')

Outcross between two excellent schillerianas, one with regular color and the other with flowers that look almost red (pictured). Objective is to keep the shape while improving the color.

2" - 30.00


 

Cattleya schoffieldiana 'Arraial D'Ajuda' x self

Selfing of an excellent plant from Bahia. Plants should be very vigorous and produce large dark green flowers with lots of veinings like the ne pictured here.

3" - 30.00


 

Cattleya schoffieldiana ('Gabriel Uliana' x 'Jubarte')

Outcross with the objective of producing well-shaped green schoffieldianas, as both parents have. Well, most schoffieldianas are green anyway, but using one plant from Espírito Santo and another from Bahia should produce vigorous plants.

3" - 30.00


 

Cattleya schoffieldiana x sib select

Two heavilly spotted schoffiedianas outcrossed here. Plants get tall and produce clusters of large green flowers with spade-shaped lips.

2" - 20.00


 

Cattleya trianae amesiana x sib select 

Two excellent trianae amesianas were used here to produce more of these white flowers with light pink lips. Both plants have very good shape and color,and this type of sib usually is very faithful to the color. One of the first ones to bloom pictured here.

4" - 45.00


 

Cattleya warneri ('Elvira' x 'Mem. R. Kautsky')

Another outcross between two very well-regarded plants of the species, in this case a concolor and an amoena (light pink with slightly darker light pink lip). As is common in this type of cross, plants are pure light green which makes for expectation of very lightly colored flowers.

3" - 35.00


 

Cattleya warneri alba 'Colossus' x outcross

As the name says, the mother plant has very larghe white flowers and the idea here is to produce more plants with similar flowers.

4" - 35.00


 

Cattleya warneri coerulea ('Carolina' x 'Raasch')

Outcross between two very nice warneri coeruleas. Both of the parents have very good color and shape, so the objective is to produce more of those.

3" - 35.00


 

Cattleya warneri tipo ('Schunk' x 'Pedra Azul')

An outcross of two outstanding regular warneris, to produce more of these nice flowers. Color should be very similar to this one pictured, including the lip pattern which is typical for the species.
