Cymbidium goeringii Early Riser Alcea Retreat RegistrationCymbidium goeringii 'Early Riser' is our 2020 introduction of a Korean selection of the coveted hardy Asian orchid, Cymbidium goeringii. Looking more like a small clump of evergreen liriope than an orchid, the 8" tall flower spikes arise for us around Valentine's Day, each holding a single green flower with a lovely red vein pattern. We have found Cymbidium goeringii extremely easy to grow in typical woodland garden conditions.
