We have one plant at each size currently in bud!

Cymbidium goeringii Tian Cao 天草 - Delicate foliage on this variety is lightly variegated with a thin stripe along the edge.  I think thought the best characteristic of this one is the flowers, which seem to have claw variegation on the sepals - very cool - plus a pale color to the usually red markings, giving an almost coerulea look, though I think its just a dilute color and not truly a coerulea.

Cym. goeringii will prefer an intermediate to cool winter, and a warm summer.  The species can be bloomed in medium light, but will bloom more reliably in bright light, like cattleyas.  Between its size and preference for cooler winter, its an excellent plant for those of you with cold windowsills in winter!

These are blooming size divisions with 3-4 growths each.  We have choice of slightly smaller plants in 3 inch pots, and slightly bigger ones in 3.5 inch pots.  All plants are blooming size.  If we have one in bud when you order, we'll ship that one!

You will get one of the plants shown, or one similar in size.  They are blooming size but not currently in bloom - flower photo is for example only.

FLAT RATE SHIPPING - one price for as many plants as you want!  (lower 48 states only) 
All plants are wrapped carefully for shipping. Plant may be shipped bare root at my discretion.  Safe arrival of buds and flowers not guaranteed.
Sorry, we are not currently shipping to Alaska or Hawaii.
