A brief introduction to the variety characteristics of the Cymbidium tortisepalum 'Jianyang Butterfly'
Jianyang Butterfly is a variety of Cymbidium tortisepalum (Lianban orchid), named because it was cultivated at the Jianyang Orchid Garden and its petals have become butterfly-like (petaloid). It was originally called Diangong Hua Lianban. It originates from the mountain slopes on the Jianchuan side of Laojun Mountain, at an altitude of 4247 m where Jianchuan, Lijiang, Lanping and Weixi meet, and was discovered in 1988. It was a cluster of several seedlings, originally dug up by an orchid lover from Shaxi, Jianchuan. Seeing that the petals were unusual, the owner specially made a steel-bar cage to grow and protect it. Later it was bought out in one lump sum at a high price by the skilled orchid grower Li Jian for cultivation and development, and was identified as a rare butterfly-petal wonder among orchids, named Jianyang Butterfly, winning an extremely high reputation in the orchid world. Many people have cultivated it. It is a rare and precious variety among orchids. By 2001 it had grown to several thousand seedlings.
