Default Cym. pendulum

A tropical lowland species in southeast Asia.
They enjoy strong sunlight, so i hang them under our palm trees, where they almost receive full sun all year round.

Hi

I was thinking that this one is like my Cymbidium aloifolium, then I checked the name, they are synonyms

The latest name is Cymbidium aloifolium. But i would prefer to call them 'Cym.pendulum' because of their pendent inflorescences.
