Cymbidium Rotorua Rose 'Splash Petal'
release_alert Low Stock - 1 available
Cymbidium Rotorua Rose 'Splash Petal' is a clone I've held onto because true splash or feathered markings in Cymbidiums are extremely uncommon, and even rarer when the pattern is stable. This one has kept the same clean feathering through multiple seasons. The flowers sit in that deep rose-red range, with the petal tips breaking into fine white striations and a strong, crisp lip. It's the only division I'm willing to part with.
