Cattleya Bow Bells

[violacea]

Why is C Bowbells so popular?

It is disease resistant, propagates easily - just cut away the back shoots by simply making a cut so the newest three or four pseudobulbs are now severed from the back ones. And keikis start from the back ones!

Each flower is larger than your hand when you do a hi-5.

Brides will use it for their wedding bouquet. For mine, I bought the whole plant five days before my wedding because there was a bud on it. And it opened fully on my wedding day! It looked good in my bouquet.
