This Linsheng-type variety of Cymbidium goeringii was collected by Zhoushan orchid enthusiast Li Bo in 2002 on the hill behind Tianfeng Temple in Siwan, Shenjiamen, Putuo, and was named by the orchid-world elder Teacher Ding Yiqing. It has flowered several times; the plant is dwarf, with a mid-striped crystal pattern and running dragon form, and the flower opens in a crystal lotus shape. Both plant and flower are crystal clear and translucent, bringing out the best in each other.  It is a representative work of Zhejiang's discovered Cymbidium goeringii crystal Linsheng type.
