Elsewhere in Winter 2016 - Cymbidium and Rhododendron

Since we were just reliving our cymbidium orchid journey through 2016 in the last post, here are some cymbidiums that we saw at Bunnings this winter.

The green-yellow one looks quite similar to ours but with less red in the lip. There seems to be generally two petal shapes - a rounded one like the one on the left, and a more pointed type like the bright pink on the right.

This is a nice colour mix. Although I prefer a more solid lip rather than speckled.

We also saw a very bright pink-red "Kaponga" rhododendron at the local Flower Power. What a beautiful bloom!
