Catasetum pileatum ‘Oro Verde’

Catasetum pileatum ‘Oro Verde’ is a spectacular selected form of this fascinating botanical orchid species, admired for its large, waxy flowers and striking green to yellow-green coloration. The impressive blooms are characterized by their broad, fleshy lip and exotic appearance, making this variety particularly attractive to collectors. It thrives in intermediate to warm temperatures with bright light, good humidity, and excellent air circulation. This plant is cultivated in a pot using a well-draining substrate and requires abundant water and regular fertilization during active growth. As the pseudobulbs mature and the leaves begin to yellow and fall, watering should be gradually reduced. During its winter dormancy, keep the plant much drier, resuming regular watering only when new growth has developed new roots. With proper seasonal care, Catasetum pileatum ‘Oro Verde’ will reward you with spectacular and distinctive blooms, making it an exceptional addition to any Catasetum collection.
