Although China is the origin of Cymbidium grandiflora and has abundant germplasm resources, it is only a native species and lacks improvement. Its wild traits are strong, and its flowers are dark and not colorful. Flowers are sparse, not plump, and flower stems are long and curved. , not upright or sagging, to develop and use must speed up the improvement. Since the 1990s, Guangdong, Yunnan, and other places have introduced fine varieties from abroad to carry out small-batch production. Due to high prices, they have not yet been fully promoted, but the market is still relatively hot, such as the price drop. The prospects are good.
Morphological characteristics Cymbidium grandiflorum is a perennial herb. The pseudobulb is oval and thick. Leaves are wide and long, pendulous, light green and shiny. Oblique obliquely, slightly curved, with 6-12 flowers. Large flowers, light yellow-green, slightly scented.

Biological characteristics Cymbidium grandiflora is native to southwest China. Often in the semi-negative environment near the creek and under the forest. Hi warm in winter and cool in summer. The optimum temperature for growth is 10-25°C. The night temperature is about 10°C. The leaves were green, the flower buds were normal in growth and development, and the flower stems were normally elongated and flowered in February to March. If the temperature is lower than 5 °C, the leaves are yellow and the flower buds do not grow. The flowering period is postponed to 4 to 5 months, and the flower stems do not elongate and affect the flowering quality. If the temperature is around 15 °C, the flower buds will suddenly stretch, flowering from January to February, and the flower stems will not stand upright. If the temperature is as high as 20°C at night, the leafy tussock will grow and flourish, affecting flowering, and forming flower buds will also turn yellow. In short, the formation of flower buds, the extraction of stems and the flowering of flower buds require large temperature difference between day and night.
Large flowers have relatively high water quality requirements, and they are slightly acidic. They are more sensitive to calcium and magnesium ions in water. It is ideal to water with rain. During the growth period, higher air humidity is required. If the humidity is too low, the growth and development of the plants is poor, the root growth is slow and small, the leaves are thick and narrow, and the leaves are yellowish in color. In general, Cymbidium grandiflora is not afraid of wetness.
Illumination is an important factor affecting the growth and flowering of Cymbidium grandiflora.

Too much shade, the leaves are slender and thin, unable to stand upright, the pseudobulb becomes smaller, it is easy to get sick, and it affects flowering. Summer shade of 50% to 60%, the more common sunshine in autumn, is conducive to flower bud formation and differentiation. Winter rain and snow days, such as the increase of auxiliary light, is extremely beneficial to flowering.
