That's a beauty, Mateo! Do you know what's in its background? Any fragrance?

No idea about the background, but I'm sure it could be found as the plant is from a major cymbidium cultivator. It has a fragrance, but it isn't particularly good. Not perfume like.

Cymbidium San Miguel
(Cymbidium Doris Aurea x Cymbidium Sicily)

Cymbidium Christmas Song
(Cymbidium Kurense x Cymbidium Rincon)

Both sets of parents go back six generations

It is lovely...you'd think it would smell good, huh?

Does this mean that the plant has been highly hybridized? I'm lack knowledge on hybridization.
