  • Cattleya re-potting doesn't need to be intimidating, but depending on the size of the plant it can be an undertaking not for the faint of heart. Here we tackle an overgrown plant in a basket, a challenging situation from a repotting standpoint.

    A good example of how vigorous a Catteleya is.

    Ouch. I can't imagine being so aggressive with those roots. Catts roots r so fussy and I don't like dealing with a rootless orchid for the next few months.
    I'm glad to hear that they grow vigorously when they r not sulking.

      The most important rule for repotting an orchid is to only repot when the plant is actively growing and producing new roots. You don't want to take a plant that has finishing its growing cycle and rip it apart, that plant will likely just languish. On the other hand you could take a plant that is just coming into growth, strip off every root and by the end of that years growth it would have a vigorous root system again. The pseudobulbs are where the plants stores water and energy, a healthy plump pseudobulb with healthy root initials is primed to grow.

    That was a bit aggressive, I wouldn't dare. All OK in the end.

    Seaweed extract is great to get the roots growing again. What Catteleya is that?
