Category photo (no photo of its own for this entry)
No reliable information could be found for the specific species "Cymbidium speciosus" (a name that appears outdated or misapplied), so this description covers the genus Cymbidium instead. Native to tropical and temperate Asia, from India to Japan and Australia, Cymbidiums are epiphytic, lithophytic or terrestrial orchids with pseudobulbs and evergreen, strap-shaped leaves. In winter and spring they produce long, arching spikes of often fragrant flowers in varied colours, each with a characteristic three-lobed lip. They prefer a well-drained, airy potting mix, bright indirect light, and cool winter temperatures.
