Default Awesome orchid, no ID Help Please!!
I bought my wife this orchid for valentines day and the store owner had lost the identification tag. Could you all please help my place it at least in a genus?




I will try to get better pictures as soon as I get home.

I think your wife is going to get stuck with just being able to call it a Cymbidium orchid.

You might be able to find something that resembles it by thumbing through the Santa Barbara Orchid estate site, they have an extensive cym collection.

Cymbidium Little Big Horn 'Warhorse', S/CSA at Santa Barbara Orchid Estate

Pretty close huh? I guess I'll never really know for sure.

Default Actually, I read somewhere that they can extract
DNA from orchids and find out.
