Good day, I'm searching fr a true red Zygo. The closest I've managed to date is Zygo luisendorf. Is there a true red or am I tilting ay windmills?

I'd like that too. The one you mentioned is the reddest I've seen. Others describe hybrids but, the crosses vary. Let me know if you find something different.

Get a Burrageara / Oncidium Nelly Isler. Much easier to grow for most people, flowers several times a year, great fragrance.

I wasn't talking to you.

(That's also the punchline of a truly horrendous joke.)

Have yet to see any Zygo that I would say was red.
