Actually I learned to grow cymbidiums in California - but Florida is a lot differant as was Connecticut when I lived there. Have live here for 20 years now.
Thought I'd let you know, it's spiked again (left it out til the beginning of december). It's sitting in a cool spot, on a cement floor, and has manged to form 3 buds that look like they will open in the next little bit. When they do, I'll post the long awaited pictures.
So it finally flowered today, not sure if this is the final color...to me its green, not yellow like I was told to expect. But I'm just happy to see that I can actually get them to reflower...wahoo...now I just need to get the other ones to spike and bloom for me.
Green Cymbidiums, when the inflorescenses are allowed to mature and open in the shade, will keep a true green color. If opened and or allowed to bloom out in bright light or direct sun, the blooms will be more yellow and fade sooner.
