    Default First Timer Cymbidium bloom

    I've had this cymbidium for two years and this is the 1st year flowering for me. Picked it up for a very cheap price out of bud, so until now I had no idea what it would look like.....now we know... not bad for a buck!

    You seriously only paid one dollar? I'd say it was a dollar very well spent! The flowers are lovely, and with such an impressive display of flowers, you've obviously done really well caring for this one.
