Cymbidium Parish Madness 'Sweetie' HCC/AOS Clone - Monster!
very impulse eBay purchase, seller had only 3 plants listed, should have listen to my guts! The other one was Cycnodes Wine Delight 'J.E.M.' FCC/AOS Clone with spike, got both yesterday, and realized he had no clue how to even ship the orchids, they came completely soaking wet - after 6 days being in the box - Cycnodes pretty much rotten to dead with fungus all around, spike rotten gone. Seller refunded for Cycnodes without any problems, appreciated, and this Cymbidium MONSTER came in pretty decent condition, just little fungus from wet that I am killing with physan, but it has one open spike and another one growing, it is lovely warm growing species, but it is a monster, 30" tall, 30" wide, it will have to go to my friend's garden, because it ate my balcony:-)))) At least I can enjoy the spike for a little while, and it will make perfect xmas gift - for $20 not bad:-)

Thanks Tindomul, I quite like the color, the shape and actually even the size of the blooms, not as big as cold growing, but pretty decent for warm grower, I think. |
