Pendant Cymbidiums
Pendant Cymbidiums are hard to find these days. You might see Dorothy Stockstill (buds about to open), Amelia Earhardt (just opening) or Sarah Jean 'Ice Cascades' (two spikes in bloom, 2 more coming).
All of these have been around for a while.

In more recent breeding, Kyle found a Fashion Runway on Ebay in 2015. This hybrid was registered in 2011, and contains both Cym madidum (12.5%) and Cym devonianum (25%).

In 2016 a second Fashion Runway was available on Ebay, and I grabbed it.
These plants have up to 39 flowers on each spike. Fortunately the spikes are very pliable, so we can stake them upright for transport.

And lastly, from the same breeder I also got a Cym Drew's Delight:

California is awash in reputable nurseries selling pendent Cymbidiums! I believe all will ship.
Hatfield Orchids in Ventura,CA
Mariposa Garden in Southern CA
Santa Barbara Orchid Estate in Santa Barbara,CA
to name but three.

And here is Cym Parish Madness 'Butterscotch', that is just opening. It has a more open spike (fewer flowers), but it is a unique color.

Yes, you have them, but there are none on the east coast. However:
Hatfield web site is non-functional and for sale (has been for several months).
Mariposa Garden is not linked to the Orchid Mall. I found their web site; it shows no plants or prices, but does have some nice photos.
I know of SBOE and buy from them regularly. Yet, their offering of cascading Cymbidiums is somewhat limited.

Hatfield sells on Ebay and has a FB page. You might try those or a personal email or phone call? The next two weeks will be hectic as he is getting ready for the big Santa Barbara show March 17-19. Yes, he is almost impossible to get a hold of! I guess he sells enough out of the nursery to move his plants.
