Cattleya neozaslawskii

A rupicolous Cattleya described as Hoffmannseggella zaslawskii V.P.Castro and renamed in Cattleya by Van den Berg in 2019. GBIF has no wild records, so its conditions here are built from its group: the rock-dwelling former Hoffmannseggella of the southeastern Brazilian highlands, which need very bright light, cool nights and a dry winter. Treat all specifics as provisional.
