Sounds pretty, can you post a pic in the gallery? I'm currently trying a few of the warmth tolerant cyms, still too early to tell if they'll bloom for me.

No picture, I advanced to the point of actually having a camera and pointing and clicking but downloading and forwarding is still beyond my digital capability. Maybe in my next life.

It is however a species so the flowers all look exactly alike. Check this out:

It lives and blooms in my backyard with temps reaching 100F and going down to 28F.

Do you still have this? I can trade my cymbidium. Sorry, I don't know the technical name. It's the big flower kind, pink with dark lip. I bought it at an Orchid show many years ago. It blooms around Easter time in No. Ca. Very prolific. I have divided about 12 mature clumps from one big pot. Most of them bloom again the same year.
