Rare Yellow Solid-color Spring Orchid Bud Pictures and Characteristics Explained
The rare yellow solid-color Spring Orchid (Cymbidium goeringii) is extremely few in number, with delicate, warm and smooth petals and a particularly strong jade-like quality. The flower stem is extremely tall and slender; when two flowers bloom, the stem height can reach over 40CM, truly a marvel. This variety does not need spring chilling; it can still open normally in winter at 20 degrees or above, without losing any of its charm. The lip of this flower is slightly curled, and the petals do not roll back even as they fade; when first opening they are pale yellow, and after three days they turn golden yellow, becoming more and more yellow as they open. In the later stage the side petals turn upward, forming flat shoulders or even flying shoulders, full of spirit. The flower shape becomes more spirited day by day, and the flower color becomes more beautiful day by day; the whole process is enough to completely captivate and astonish anyone.
