Blc. Norman’s Bay ‘Low’ AM, FCC/AOS (Bc. Hartland x Lc. Ishtar) We are very excited to offer this fantastic old cattleya for sale again. This plant produces dark magenta flowers with a texture of velvet. The flowers have excellent overlapping round flowers and a spicy, sweet scent. Plants are very vigorous growers. The `Low' var. is one of the four varieties from the original cross registered in 1946 by the Stuart & Low Co. Awarded 84 points in 1959 and 94 points in 1976. 6" pot Blooming size Free Flowering Cattleya Culture Light is the most important factor in growing and flowering cattleyas, whether in a greenhouse or in the home. Bright light to some sun should be given to the plants, with no direct sun in the middle of the day. This means an east, shaded south (as with a sheer curtain) or west window in the home, and 50 to 70 percent full sun in a greenhouse (3,000 to 5,000 foot-candles). Leaves should be a medium green color, pseudobulbs erect and requiring no staking. Temp
