The rain orchid usually blooms in summer and autumn, because it often blooms suddenly after heavy rain in spring and summer. The flower leek only blooms in spring, generally from March to June, and in warm places in the south, it also blooms in winter.
Judging from the appearance, the plants and flower types of Cymbidium are large, while those of Allium tuberosum are small and small.
Because the leaf shape and smell of the flower leek are very similar to that of the leek, so it is named. The leaves of the flower leek have a strong taste of leek. The leaves of the leek in the wind and rain orchid are just like leek, but they have no taste of leek. Except for a few varieties that open at night or hybrid, they will have obvious strong fragrance, and their leaves are toxic.
