Cymbidium Orchid Species and Varieties

Cymbidium Orchids - Blooms and Species. With around 50 species Cymbidium Orchids, most species are terrestrial, however some, mainly those from lower altitudes are epiphytic. All will grow well in containers. As long as they are not subject to freezes they are a remarkably hardy group. They will survive with low night temperatures down to around 3C (37F) and also grow well in warm areas, as long as they get some shade. To get good blooms, a nighttime drop in temperature during winter is essential.
