Proctavola Golden Peacock is a intergeneric hybrid of Brassocattleya Richard Mueller X Prosthechea vitelline and it’s one of the most vigorous and prolific growing orchids you can find. This plant grows well in most settings and unless severely stressed it will produce a beautiful spike of many bright orange flowers. These are unfortunately without fragrance, but it doesn’t take any of it’s beauty. The maximum flowers each spike can bare is between 8 and 10. And they are long lasting, and can stay in flower up to 8 weeks. Furthermore, because the plant grows fast it will flower for you even 3 times a year. Now that’s a treat. From personal experience, the Golden Peacock does well both in standard bark, and in semi hydroponics. It also clumps fast so the plant will have to be maintained every 2 years. Provide it with ample daylight, however not a Vanda light. It will grow OK in phalaeonopsis set up with only 2500 – 3000 footcandles of light but will tolerate...
Spending my free time in mastering the difficult (let's be honest) art of growing orchids, as well as trying to share my knowledge to people around me in the United Kingdom and further.
