Default Red Cymbidium

This is the first Cymbidium to open for me this year and I've got several others that have very nice spikes... well, for me they look like they may be nice, since last year it was a disaster. I couldn't get these guys to do anything. So this summer I put them out on the driveway to bake.... and bake they did!

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme!

That is so red, it looks like a candy apple.

Do you have a name so I can add it to my "want" list?

Looks like you've 'baked' this one to perfection! Great red!
