That they are! I think that was part of my thought process when I picked up this species. Some of my first Catasetums were denticulatum hybrids. Figured since those were so darn easy, the species couldn’t be too terrible. Should have known better, lol

Might be why mines not dead
dead yet? The past two winters, I don’t let it go bone dry for more than a day or so. There is always a tiny break between the late season growth (which usually starts losing leaves in March-ish) and the first growths of the year (June-July), it will still get watered regularly during that time. No clue. Might actually try putting this one on a heat mat over the winter. I wouldn’t think 65°f would be too cold, but that area might be getting more cold than I realize especially when the moss in the pot is damp
