Cymbidium Bulbarrow ‘Lazy Possum’
check_circle In Stock
The original division of Cymbidium Bulbarrow ‘Lazy Possum’ — not a mericlone. This is the authentic selected clone, valued for its distinctive flower patterning, proven vigour, and historical importance within the grex.
Notably, this clone has been regarded as the only fertile selection from the grex, making it especially significant to breeders and serious Cymbidium collectors. Opportunities to obtain the original clone are exceptionally limited.
Many older Cymbidium clones have been lost to time, replaced by unnamed stock or mass-produced selections. ‘Lazy Possum’ stands apart as the original cultivar division, carrying genuine breeding and collector value that cannot be replicated by generic clones.
