Brassocattleya (abbreviated Bc.) Rustic Spots was created and registered by H&R Nurseries (Hawaii) in 2000. Bc. Rustic Spots is 25% Brassavola nodosa and exhibits many of its characteristics: easy to grow, floriferous, fragrance, and distinctive lip. The awarded clone ‘H&R’ is the most well-known.
Bc. Rustic Spots 'H&R' AM/AOS is a classic miniature orchid with intriguing 3-inch, fragrant flowers that change color as it matures, a trait inherited from Bc. Richard Mueller. The flowers first open a darker shade of red and then fades into a rustic orange and mustard yellow, with mahogany spotting throughout. The compact plants are beginner friendly. It is heat tolerant, adapts to a wide range of temperatures and conditions, easy to grow and bloom. It can flower several times a year, mainly summer and fall. Give bright indirect light, intermediate to warm temperatures, water and fertilize regularly (allow roots to dry a bit). These plants will grow well either in a pot or mounted. Can be grown outdoors year-round in areas where summers are hot and winters are mild and frost free. A welcome addition to any orchid collection. Highly recommended.
