Cattleya rex SEEDLING CARE | SELF - WATERING | Leca | PEST Prevention #CareCollab

#Cattleyarex #HowtocareforCattleyarex #PestPrevention #Scale
2018, I RECEIVED A WEAK, SCALE INFESTED #ORCHID WHICH I STILL HOPE IS A CATTLEYA REX. After it grew 2 new growths in 2019 and then no new growths for all of 2020, I figured, this could be a #Cattleyarex because they are a little finicky in cultivation. So, this #CareCollab is a good time to take a look at the #orchid and check it's current status. There is good news and bad news!!
