Cymbidium findlaysoniana

[nancy]

Greetings-
Hope I've spelled it correctly - my only species Cymbidium, as well as the only hot-growing one I have - the others are all old cool-growers that are strictly outdoor plants here in the deep south. Some people here keep these (cool growing) in coolers full of ice, replacing the ice as it melts, to assure blooms. Now, doesn't that sound like fun?
Any experiences with this species? I have seen it bloom both in winter and summer - which would be more typical?
I lusted after one for a long time, and last winter a pal gave me a division which has grown very well (in pure fresh horse manure).
Of course, I want flowers, and lots of 'em.
Thanks - Nancy
