Cymbidium Jess Winter 'Kimberley' is a striking peloric form of this well-known hybrid, displaying vivid rose-pink blooms marked with deep crimson spotting across the petals and labellum. Each spike carries a showy display of richly coloured flowers with a distinctive flattened (peloric) lip. This is a very rare and collectable original division — not a mericlone — offered for serious collectors.
