Nice looking flowers on that one Doc! How big is the plant over all? Looks like it's in the intermediate range to me.

Keep in mind that cymbids have a long blooming span; depending on their ancestry, some will not be blooming until April or later; these ones will not start to initiate spike until later in the season. I have 4 or 5 plants that typically bloom in late April or May, and will not see spike formation on them until mid March at the earliest. There is hope yet!
