Cymbidium bicolor subspecies pubescens

[OrchidLover1982]

I also like such 'stiff-leaved' cymbidiums. But they are seldom grown except the species, Cymbidium pendulum.

Seldom grown in Taiwan or seldom grown in general? You don't see them often here apart from finlaysonianum. I like them a lot to especially here in the subtropics they grow really well and flower very good. You can even grow them as a garden plant here in a tree.

As i know, some of these cymbidiums had been imported decades ago as outdoor plants. But people here in Taiwan like chinese cymbidiums more then these stiff ones. Therefore, they were seldom grown here in Taiwan.
