You never know what can result by putting the word out. Also I would check the for sale ads, as someone may now try and sell them.

No one in Hollywood gives a rats or has time to even care about someone else's plants, unfortunately.
It's a small busy city filled mostly with actors, film makers, musicians, and artists, with a few other people from other professions sprinkled in. They're too busy worrying about themselves and how they're gonna make it.
Then add the myriad of tourists from all over the country and all over the world.
On top of that, take into consideration all the people who go there to party who are mostly from the neighboring cities with a few who are from the other more obscure cities in Los Angeles County.
It's Las Vegas' twin, without the casinos.
Most people wouldn't even know what the hell a Cymbidium is, let alone ID them.
They're gone. There's no getting them back unless by a miracle of chance, someone hands them back. The odds are very, very low.
Many of folks have legacy plants that have been passed down. I have a basket of Bc. Lindleyana that has been passed down from my Grandfather. It has been in my family over 50 years and would consider it close to the end of the world if were stolen.
