Oops, I think my photos didn't upload. A purpose for me guessing the parentage is knowing whether it'll survive my heat, seeing as I'm too hot to grow the vast majority of cymbidiums. I was trying to...

Hmm. I'm not that familiar with cymbidiums, but I think the flower substance is comparable to my aloifolium's. Do you know how that might compare to finlaysonianum?

I agree, and I think the source of my plants must just be chronically mislabelling it. I still think it's dayanum, but it looks more like Tavoy (dayanum x finlayssonianum) to me.

Very true! I knew as soon as the spike started growing that it wasn't going to be Valerie Absolonova for that reason. I've seen a division of the same plant as mine on this forum called Akaka Falls,...

ID for Cymbidium dayanum hybrid

Can you help me guess the ID for this cymbidium sold as Valerie Absolonova? The plant looks like dayanum, but the flowers aren't quite right. No fragrance, and the flowers are 1 3/4 to 2 in tall....

Looks like a Phal. Timothy Christopher to me based on the size, but we'll never know.

I separated and repotted them. The roots of one were not great but okay, but the other one's were pretty sad, though I've seen worse on plants that still managed to have plump leaves. There are some...

They're actually my mom's (until they finish blooming). She bought them several days ago just for the flowers with the idea that she'd give them to me to grow after the blooms fell off. I don't want...

Shriveled leaves on Phal. schilleriana cross

After about a week of my mother's care, this pair of phals went from vibrantly healthy to completely dehydrated. It's clear she didn't water enough, and humidity was low, but I've never seen an...

I think you're right! If you look at the tips of the leaves, even the way the two halves of each leaf meet up is the same.
Thanks!

Genus? Phal-like, Monopodial NoID

Can anyone give me a genus on this? I just got it as a freebie with no name. Based on the spike and floppy leaves, my gut tells me it's not quite a phal, or it's at least not a species I'm familiar...

It produces a spike at the juncture of the bases of the top two leaves. Mine came out of a very small sheath.

Mine has bloomed! And in the meantime, I noticed five new buds on another spike.

I too got this plant as a discounted rescue from Lowes. Don't worry about the purple; a lot of eplc.'s (and epc.'s in my experience) get that as they mature. As long as the leaves stay green,...

I don't think a crossing back to tenebrosa would fix those narrow, curled petals, but it sure would make a beautiful lip! And the cross using a nice aurea tenebrosa would be exquisite--it would...
