'Yuan' is likely a typo. 'Yun' sounds more correct. The Chinese characters for Cai Yun He are 彩云荷
Does your Cai Yun He look like these?

Thank you for your translations ksd123. I appreciate your inclusion of the Pinyin. Thank you for correcting the spelling of Yuan to Yun.
My version of this Cymbidium goeringii Cai Yun He is this plant, from the Big Oak Vendor. In person, it looks exactly like my plant and the plants shown in your link.

I posted previously my Cym goeringii with the long leaves. Here is an example of Cym goeringii that has short, curly leaves. The long leafed version comes from China. The short leaved version was hybridized in S. Korea but I got it from japenseorchds/eBay vendor.

This is a hybrid of Cymbidium goeringii x Cymbidium floribumdum.
