Woo hoo, I scored!! Lovely big multi-spiked Cymbidiums at Costco for $22! I tried very hard to not be greedy and to just pick one, but two of the little devils managed to come home with me. Neither of them seems to have a name tag, just "Cymbidium Care". Maybe when I go to re-pot them I'll find a tag down in the pot.

It's dark outside so I can't get good pictures, but I did take shots of the display at the store. The one on the far right in the first pic was the second rascal that wooed me with its gorgeous huge flowers after I'd already chosen a big one with buds all still closed, and 3 spikes. I think the first one will be bright yellow with red spotting on the lip, and the other is pale yellow/green with white lip and a small fuschia edging at the end of the lip. I may have to back and get a couple more, they're so nice. Seem to be very high quality plants for a big box store.
