Introduction to the Characteristics of the Cymbidium goeringii 'Xiangxiang Qidie' Variety

A Cymbidium goeringii rui die (stamened butterfly) cultivar from Guizhou. This variety occasionally produces attractive leaf variegation resembling butterflies, and its blooms are stable, with three tongues forming a throat tube, and it reblooms reliably. The butterfly-like leaf variegation and colorful patches it produces are both very beautiful. Its flowers are extremely fragrant, hence the name "Xiangxiang Qidie" (Fragrant Wonder Butterfly)! A few years ago, this variety was mixed in with Biyao during trading, but because its leaf shape is more curved and its leaf texture is thinner, it was confirmed to be another new variety and distinguished accordingly.
