Originating from Lushan, Ya'an, Sichuan. Purchased in 1985 from a orchid-growing friend surnamed Zhu, it is a medium-wide-leaf Cymbidium goeringii. When the plants are strong, they often produce 1 scape with double flowers, and in some years they often bear flowers with plain lips and colored petals; when fully open, the flowers are colorful dragon-shaped plum petals, with bright oil-yellow, peach-red, green-yellow, purple-red and other colors inlaid and combined, forming flowers of brilliant color. Some open as colorful striped artistic flowers, and some form flowers that are half oil-yellow and half rose-red; the peculiar petals grow like the body of a colorful goldfish, and on the fish head there are also two large, round, bright eyes, smiling brightly and richly varied, freely frolicking and swimming among the clumps of orchid leaves.
