A Cymbidium, not a species var., rather a hybrid of which there are thousands. They prefer cool temps, high light and heavy feedings (regular) of orchid fertilizer from bud formation until late fall. Since they are terrestrial, not epiphytes, they should be potted in a loose mix, preferably containing some orchid bark, with a lot of leaf mold. Probably more info than wanted.
