Comments:
Does not like wet feet, but grows well where soil is kept moist. The beautiful, catteleya orchid-like, yellow flowers have a sweet fragrance. Forms a clump of several plants that are spectacular when in flower. In areas where not hardy, it can be successfully grown as a container specimen.
