    Default Cymbidium ID

    Any way to ID this plant or at least narrow it down to warm/cold grower. I have pretty bad luck with these, really want to keep this one alive.

    Likely a cooler grower.

    Agree with Ray-it looks like a standard sized Cymbidium and they are the ones that prefer to grow on the cooler side. It looks a lot like one my mother had when I was growing up and she grew completely outside in Southern California.

    Thank you, thats the most important info. I'm in Idaho so it will have to winter inside but it will be outside as much as possible.

    I have an old Cymbidium Jungfrau 'Dos pueblos' that has a lot of similarities. Might be a strong parentage in part.
