Mid Summer Cymbidium goeringii check, Chinese Cym. goeringii (lost tag), repotted in May and this year produces 7 new growths, should be able to double in size in 2 years. Vigorous grower, much easier to grow and faster than Japanese Cymbidium goeringii.

The flower looks like Neofinetia falcata "Hoshiguruma" 富貴蘭「星車」. However, the leaf is too big to be the correct variety. Hoshiguruma should have average size leaf length with narrow leaves. This leaf length is way too big/long.

The potting mix is consisted of Hard Kanuma, baked Akadama, and Satsuma. Yes, it is inorganic, but they do break down eventually. The reasons to repot this plant: 1. the last repotting was 3 years ago, so the media is starting to get old and starting to break down (when you water, you can feel...

Cymbidium goeringii repotting (春蘭の植え替え): One of the Cymbidium goeringii in the collection needs to be repotted this year. It was 3 years since the last repotting, so it's time. When it is grown in the correct East Asian Cymbidium Potting Mix, the plant is rootbound. There are so much roots that...

Cym hookerianum and Cym tigrinum are much easier than Cym. goeringii and I have seen them a few times. Cym hookerianum is an epiphyte and Cym tigrinum is a lithophyte, while Cym. goeringii is terrestrial. Cym. hookerianum and Cym tigrinum can be grown in your "regular" Cymbidium potting...

It is a very nice one :) congrats..... Mochizuki is a Japanese word 望月 which means to look at the moon. The top yellow flower form C. goeringii (korean clone) has the same name. With round petals and yellow/white flower, I think the name is absolutely appropriate.

Abax: it is a misconception that East Asian Cymbidiums (C. goeringii, C. sinense, C. kanran, C. faberi) are cold growers. It is wrong. All the informaton in English is wrong (this is the best and most concise way I can put it). All these species require a warm to hot summer months (at least 3...

MoraniWine: Buds are initiated in the middle of the summer, not in the fall when there is cool nights. These cool fall nights...etc for bud inducton is wrong. By the fall, it is already too late to induce the buds. Once the buds are induced and they are grown about 3cm-5cm, I cover it with...
