Endless Cymbidiums in Bloom

They always offer a great display don't they!

What a sight!!! I moved mine back outside....my house is too hot for it. (at least I have six new growth!!!)

very nice, i do like these...

Meanie:

Yes, there's so many hybrids available now.

Alexandramou:

Yes, it was quite a sight! This was only a few of the many.

Has yours started to bloom?

I will have a look tomorrow. My sister in law's has two spikes...she forgot hers outside until I reminded her right before the frosts started. Have I learned a lesson??? Yes I have. ;o)))

A fab-u-lous display!

Alexandramou:

Cymbidiums are pretty hardy, however, the flower spikes and flowers are not.

Petaltracey:

Yes, they are pretty fabulous! Thanks! :>)

Delonix,
Checked on my Cym...nope, no spike. Oh well....

WHAT!!! How old is your Cymbidium?

I made a boo boo with my Cym. I repotted at the wrong time and I think I killed my two flower spikes. Then it came into the house where night temps didn't "really" drop.
It is a big plant now....six new growths this winter. I bought it last year.

Yes, Cymbidiums should only be transplanted every 3 or 5 years. They like to be crowded in pots or in planters outside.

My Cymbidium was literally pushed out of the pot....

It sounded like it needed to be transplanted. :>)

It did and I was VERY careful but I still lost what I think was two flower spikes. Maybe next year I will have 6 flower spikes!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Many plants should NOT be transplanted when in bud or starting to bud. Any little trauma can cause bud-drop. I do know orchids are especially sensitive. Plumerias are the only plant I will transplant with flower spikes. They're not sensitive.

I've actually have taken plumeria cuttings with flower spikes -- and they've bloomed when rooted.
