Cymbidium ..of some type / cultivar..  Would check out this / other Cym. related growing guide posted on  Santa Barbara Orchid Estate's website for additional cultivation guidance..

VERY popular " Yard Orchid " in many parts of -at least- coastal California. Among the first " tropicals " i tried to grow as a kid. Countless cultivars out there now.

SEHR beliebte „Yard Orchid“ in vielen Teilen – zumindest – der kalifornischen Küste. Gehört zu den ersten „Tropenpflanzen“, die ich als Kind zu züchten versuchte. Mittlerweile gibt es unzählige Sorten.

thank you very much for your explinations.

  ..Probably one of the easiest Orchids to grow, esp. for beginners,  but,  lol ..i'll warn you now..  Once you start down the " Orchid Rabbit hole ",  there's no turning back ...You will become addicted
