A Cymbidium I inherited form a OS member.It blooms faithfully every year,and that is the only reason it never made the compost pile.I am thinking next OS meeting it will be going to someone else.

Nice. i like cymbids, I just cant grow them! :(

Being able to grow them has been my downfall.Everybody who cant grow them always wants to give me theirs,and how do you say no to a free Orchid?
 
Lovely! Cymbidiums are easy to grow outdoors in my area. I look forward each year to Cymbidium season in the winter/spring!

I hear lots of people even plant them in the ground in your area. Is that right? Or is it better to keep them in pots?
 
I found that cymbidiums are on of the easiest Orchids to grow.I put them outside in the Spring and pretty much forget about them till Oct/Nov.
 
I've seen Cymbidiums planted directly in the ground but mostly I see them in pots. I prefer pots so that I can easily move them around if needed.

You are lucky! :)

Just take a photo of the flowers with you to your next OS meeting. Someone will want this one. It's truly lovely!
