Chinese Cymbidium ?

[harrygermany]

Hello everyone,

I am rather new to orchids.
Recently I got a flowering orchid from a friend, and I would like to know what orchid it is.

Can anyone help me identify this species ?

It's origin is Nepal, and it seems to be a Cymbidium.

Leaves are 90-100 cm (3 to 3 1/3 feet) long;
0,8 cm (1/3 inch) wide;
grasslike; slightly ribbed, with a clear middle rib; dark green.

It blooms in March.
Flowers are 9 cm (3 1/2 inch) in diameter, yellowish green (picture shows correct colours), NOT FRAGRANT AT ALL.

This Cymbidium seems to belong to the group of "Chinese" or "oriental" Cymbidiums, i.e. that famous "sacred" group of C. sinense, C. kanran, C. cyperifolium etc.

But these "Chinese Cymbidiums" are all reported as highly fragrant.

So what is it ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards

Harry
