Cymbidium erythrostylum

[Marissa]

I just got this so I can't take credit for the blooms. 5 spikes total

I always enjoy it when erythrostylum blooms. The white is such a lovely white.
I'm happy you are able to see it. Now you have to get it to bloom again!!!

I'm just waiting for my 2 year old seedling to get big enough to flower.

So at the moment I am rather even if you did buy such a beautifull plant. Hope it flwers that well for you next year too.

it took my erythrostylum 4 years to bloom from flask fyi.. so patience is a required ingredient!!

Those are beautiful blooms, Marissa, and the plant looks very healthy also. Do the flowers have any scent?

4 years sounds about right because the dates on the label on this is 05/2006 and 05/2008 when it was probably potted into this 1 gal. pot.

There is no scent at all.

I don't mind the wait .... That only leaves me 2 years to go ... I have been waiting for a Paph I got as a deflasked seedling to flower for four years and as it's a Roth I will most likely have to wait 2 more years at least

Really pretty one. Love that flower shape.

Interesting you say yours isn't fragrant, I just purchased one from Andy's not too long ago and it was listed under the fragrant cymbidiums. It has yet to bloom so i haven't been able to tell for myself whether it has a scent or not. but i'll keep my fingers crossed that it is.

The flower shape is beautiful and the coloring looks spectacular! I would enjoy one like this !
