This is a Japanese 'Waran' compact Cymbidum hybrid which uses goeringii to keep the plant small. In addition, it can flower two seasons, summer or winter! These plants are known for their upright stems, which do not need staking. The flowers should have a light, sweet fragrance from the goeringii, sometimes reminiscent of musk.

We have just imported these plants as of October 2025. Imported Cymbidium replace their entire root system, so it is recommended to water 'lightly' and not to saturate the potting medium until you see new roots at the side of the pot (which is why we used clear containers). Keeping them too wet at this stage can risk additional rot that can go to the bulbs. Typically, it will take 2 to 4 months for the new roots to emerge. We expect this batch to flower between the spring and summer of 2026.

As the example photo shows, once established, these are capable of producing multiple flower spikes. Note it is common for this variety to have some black markings on the foliage.
