Cattleya orchid care in Australia

• Light: Choose a bright position with filtered sun. Protect from intense afternoon sun, particularly during summer.
• Water: Water thoroughly, then allow the orchid mix to approach dryness before watering again. Empty saucers so roots do not stand in water.
• Growing medium: Use an airy orchid bark mix and a pot with excellent drainage.
• Airflow: Provide gentle air movement alongside humidity, avoiding a constantly damp, enclosed position.
• Temperature: Protect from frost and cold draughts. In cooler parts of Australia, use a sheltered indoor or greenhouse position.
• Feeding: Apply an orchid fertiliser at the label's recommended dilution during active growth.
