Mini-catts are one of the small treasures of the orchid world. With plant height generally under 6 inches (flower spikes taller on some varieties), they can seem like a beautiful corsage orchid in miniature! Because many brightly colored species contribute to modern mini-catt hybrids, they come in a kaleidoscopic range of jewel-like tones. Many are highly suitable for 'windowsill' culture and some are highly recommended for beginning orchid growers. Best of all, the vast majority bloom more than once per year, sometimes three or more times with good culture! Here is our current selection of these tropical gems.
