Talking New Cymbidium - Tips

Hey everyone,

So I've already made the leap to a new orchid since I love my oncidium experience so much already! The oncidium has been relocated to a different area with more sun during it's growth period and I have a new VERY pretty cymbidium in its place!

I have already checked out the culture sheet and think I have a good idea of how I need to care for it, but any expert tips would be appreciated Also - I this guy has some very sticky sap behind each flower bud...does this mean it's happy?

Picture is posted ~

That's a beauty you have there!! The sticky sap is normal and nothing to be concerned about, and as long as you follow the culture sheet you'll do well!
