Rhyncholaeliocattleya Shinfong 'Little Boy' belongs to the Cattleya alliance, a group of orchids widely cultivated for their large, colourful flowers. This grex is a man-made hybrid, with 'Little Boy' being a named cultivar selected for its particular floral qualities. The flowers are typically bold in colour, with a broad lip and flared petals, and carry the waxy texture that is characteristic of many Rhyncholaeliocattleya hybrids. Like others in this alliance, it is valued for showy blooms that can appear once or more a year depending on growing conditions.

Care Tips

  • Light: Prefers bright, filtered light; strong light encourages flowering but avoid leaf scorch.
  • Water: Water thoroughly during active growth, allowing the medium to dry slightly between waterings; reduce frequency after flowering until new growth begins.
  • Media: Best grown in coarse orchid bark or similar open, free-draining medium.
  • Fertiliser: Feed regularly with a balanced orchid fertiliser during the growing season, reducing after flowering.
  • Temperature: Tolerates intermediate to warm conditions; protect from prolonged cold.
  • Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years or when the medium breaks down, positioning new growths towards fresh space in the pot.
