Growth habit of Cymbidium

Cymbidium orchids emerge new leaf buds from early May to early June every year, and fall buds emerge from late July to mid-August. After the new leaf buds emerge from the soil, there is a slow period of about 20 days, and the period of leaf expansion is from mid-June to late July;

July to October is the elongation period of the leaves, and November to February is the dormant period. It is very important that Cymbidium orchids should be cultivated with 3 seedlings in a row, and it is not easy to live with less than 3 seedlings. Each seedling of Cymbidium orchid takes about 3 years from the time it emerges from the soil to the completion of its growth.

It takes about 5 months for the buds to become dormant before they can produce good flowers with a pleasant fragrance. Flowering period is from late March to late April every year.
