Cattleya Minipet Hanajima ‘Ruby Red’

Cattleya Minipet Hanajima ‘Rubi Red’
belongs to the mini‑Cattleya (mini‑Catt) group — compact hybrids bred for vivid red flowers, strong form, and easyblooming.

A closely related hybrid Ctt. Candy Ball Ruby Red × C. Minipet is sold in Australia, confirming that Minipet is used in breeding for red miniature Cattleyas.

Mini‑Cattleyas are described as small plants (<15 cm), large flowers for size, heat‑tolerant, and capable of blooming twice a year. This aligns perfectly with what growers expect from a clone like ‘Rubi Red’. Flowers often appear larger than expected for the plant size
