    Smile Catasetum Karen Armstrong 'SVO'

    This is one of Fred Clarke's mini-hybrid Catasetums. I had this over the winter while it was dormant last year and was able to get a spike of 4 blooms this season. Male again!

    3 more Catasetum's still in spike.

    Thanks! Karen

    No very easy and then they go to sleep for 4-5 months and require no care at all.
