In sunny zone 10 my cymbidium is kicking into high-gear. One spike is opening up and the other one is waiting in the wings.
Nearly all the blooms on the first spike are starting to open.
I love the creamy color combo.

Cymbidium in Bloom
In sunny zone 10 my cymbidium is kicking into high-gear. One spike is opening up and the other one is waiting in the wings.
Nearly all the blooms on the first spike are starting to open.

Santa Barbara International Orchid Show Coming Soon!
CalOrchid display at past orchid show
Spring is in the air in Santa Barbara as the days are growing balmy and my new creamy cymbidium is opening it's blooms (photos soon!) Spring also means a special time for flower-lovers in SB: less then a month to go to the SB International Orchid Show at Earl Warren!
The show includes judged categories, flower arranging and fantastical displays by local orchid collectives. Some displays are over 40 feet long and the whole showroom is filled with the heady scent of these truly magic plants.
My favorite display is always the miniature orchid case - a beautiful terrarium in it's own right! I promise I will take many photos!
