Growing Cymbidium Orchids



Cymbidium Orchids do best where nighttime temperature does not drop below 50F or 10C. In the UK Cymbidium Orchids are best grown in a conservatory, controlled greenhouse or they can be grown in the home. Remember that new growth is triggered by cool nighttime temperatures during summer and spring, so if you are growing cymbidiums indoors you will need to vary the temperature.

Cymbidium Orchids require good ventilation or air movement and lots of light, however in extreme heat provide some protection. Cymbidiums will enjoy some time in the open during summer months

Cymbidiums like to be moist but not wet, use a fairly open potting mixture, we recommend a specialist orchid mix.

Cymbidiums will flower in the UK between May and September, remove flower spikes once flowers have died back.

To repot Cymbidium Orchids wait until flowering has finished, divide leaving one of the 'back bulbs' or 'pseudo bulbs' on each division, these are the bulbs that have lost all leaves. Back bulbs act as a nutrient supply.
