    Default Cymbidium Red Beauty 'Bill's Choice' 4n

    This cultivar of Red Beauty is also known as 'Nancy' in some places. It is the first of several 4n ones I collected last year.

    Actually Red Beauty has some warm tolerance in the genetics. Some folk on Oahu have been able to flower it at reasonable altitudes. As a result I've crossed it with some known very warm tolerants to see if we can come up with a cross that is this colorful. Cymbidium Nut is now in bloom for me and is rather warm tolerant.
