A charming hybrid of several Catasetum sub-families Catasetum go dormant every year and look dead. They are not dead and will begin to grow again in a couple of months. If the newest bulb is hard, the plant is healthy. After they grow a new bulb, they will leaf out flower and then lose all the leaves. The sub-family Clowesetum is known for flower longevity and high flower count. These are clones of the awarded plant and should look like the photo.
