The most spectacular and fragrant of the Cymbidium species. In its native
habitats of Myanmar, Thailand, and China this plant grows up in the trees with
its inflorescense arching to cascading down. In cultivation, it does fine
potted as with other cymbidiums. All tracyanums are not equal. Many are poor
bloomers with short flower spikes. Tracyanum is appreciated for its
tiger-stripings and spots, ruffled lip, large size, sweet scent and overall
character.
