That stranger looks like a blue walking iris ;-) You have such a wonderful collection of sweet flowers! I especially like the Cymbidium. The flower look so soft.

Thank you, Steph. Actually someone had helped me with an ID for that plant before but... I forgot :-).
I have a few cymbidiums and I like this one a lot, too. Too bad, it doesn't bloom this year because I changed the medium last summer. Maybe the next CNY I will have some spikes on it.
