This one needs to be repotted, just as soo as all the spikes open; it will throw 2 spikes per bulb if it has adequate room (which it does not this year).

Ohhhh, what a sweet thing. Too bad you didn't stake as it was getting longer. Beautiful color combination.

This is most often grown as a pendant cymbidium; when all the buds are open the spikes usually hang a bit more gracefully.

Sorry, my mis-stake. I do know about the pendulous type as I have only one called 'DAG". Last year I had 5 spikes with about 150 flowers, really hangs over. Thanks for the info.....nice collection.

I really do like the pale yellow color of this cym. It's a very elegant beauty.
