Cattleya Gaskelliana Semi Alba

Cattleya gaskelliana, commonly known as Gaskell's Cattleya, is a classic, large-flowered pseudobulbous epiphyte native to Northern Venezuela and Trinidad. It grows on trees and rocks in the Eastern Coastal Mountain Range (Cordillera de la Costa) at elevations between 700 and 1,500 metres. Its native habitats vary from humid tropical cloud forests to somewhat drier, rocky slopes where it is exposed to significant sun. The plant's pseudobulbs are vital storage organs, helping it endure the slightly drier conditions of its habitat. The first picture is one of our specimens and the second is the division for sale.
