Cymbidium Mary Pinchess 'Del Rey' (In Bloom)
Presenting : Cymbidium Mary Pinchess 'Del Rey', HCC/AOS, B/CSA
A very free-flowering and vibrantly colored miniature cymbidium. It finally opened all its blooms and gave a spectacular show...Petals are a bright yellow with the lip cream and yellow and dotted with burgundy spotting. I follow the cymbidium culture to the letter because I am scared to kill this baby...This was strategically placed on the corner of the fire escape to make it feel the cool nights of autumn in New York(it is indoors as a centerpiece now that it is in bloom)...I need to repot it after its blooms because it is trying to burst the 1 gal. plastic pot...it has seven bulbs with two of the bulbs in bloom and there are two brand new growths developing.

Wow, I love it! What a 'Ray' of sunshine! I wish I could find some miniature cyms in Canada. I had one a few years ago from Cloud's but they don't seem to have them anymore. I have two standard ones in spike right now, but some smaller ones would be nice! Great growing!

Thank You, Silken! If Cloud's had them before then they will sell them again maybe this spring...

It's been a couple years since they carried a selection of cymbidiums. Maybe the business of chilling them is too much when you're a large greenhouse. Oh well, I shouldn't be getting ANY more orchids but you know how that goes!
