Is it Cymbidium pendulum, orchidaceae: 5 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (2)
Habitat- Green house May I know who you are and where is the plant from? Obviously its not found in wild in Chandigarh. I would say this is Cymbidium aloifolium yes I have to agree with …, both may will feel same but C.aloifolium is smaller than C.pendulum in all aspects.
please comment on my view.
Both plants are available in Kerala forests especially southern Kerala. Sir actually this plant is in the Botanical garden (Green house) of Panjab university Chandigarh

It is very unique infact because the sepals are almost completely red, they usually have red band with yellow on both sides. Superb images!!!

MS June, 2017/04 Cymbidium sp. for ID : 5 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (1) Location : Sihphir, Mizoram A closeup of the flower would be more helpful. I consider this as Cymbidium aloifolium if found in India. But identification from not so good images are always tentative.

Cymbidium (Bicolor) sp. from Sikkim (Apr-09) Depending on perception this could be either Cymbidium bicolor or Cymbidium aloifolium. This should be Cymbidium aloifolium.

I need to know the width and see the apex. There are two species here, Cymbidium aloifolium (98313, 8182) and C. bicolor (94211, Kaveri). . Cymbidium aloifolium:
Ok I dug up a bit more.
So let me confuse you guys more.
There is a monograph on Cymbidium by Puy and Cribb
They write:
Side lobes of the lip not exceeding the column, and anther cap, obtuse to sub-acute, finely mottled with maroon or red-brown ——– C. bicolor.
Side lobes of the lip longer than the column and anther cap, acute, veined with maroon —— C. aloifolium
So lets follow this from now on and change the labels accordingly.
Here the side lobes are not exceeding the column and anther cap…. so this should be C. bicolor.
