Found this at a small plant sale last Sunday; a type plant sale where major orchid growers/buyers in the busines (South Florida) attend... and, while I was there one hour after opening (2-hrs counting early-bird admission); I came upon a stall where a seller had just taken this out of her van to place in an empty spot on her table, seconds earlier as I walked up to her table. The best find I ever had in the field.
Virtually everyone who saw me walking out to my car while holding this had a facial expression; "where did he find that?" while others said exactly that along with "nice find..." 😀
The pot is 6" and the plant diameter is 30"
(This orchid is a warm-growing Cymbidium... not the common type seen in cool, autumn regions)
