Very nice! :)

Nice! I have one of these too and a horde of NoIDs. I find the scent irresistible :D

Very nice plant, nd that sure is a lot of flowers on a single spike! I admire people who can grow Zygos, I have failed miserably at each attempt. I always end up with a pile of rotten mush.

DirtyCoconuts 02-25-2020 08:45 AM

Thanks Camille! I can only take minimal credit lol. I just try to put it in a nice place and stay out of its way hahaha

As Dolly says, nice foliage! Regardless of my care, the blooms are great but the foliage always looks terrible.

Very nice! I love it! I have never had any success with Zygopetalinae, I think it is just too warm, dry and stagnant where I grow.

DirtyCoconuts 02-25-2020 06:22 PM

I think you can take warm off that list lol. It is not cool here

The other two I got in spades

I find that the funnest thing about orchids. You can stumble into one and it is a great success in your area Or you get a mushy pile of failure lol. Oooor you could look it up before hand but I don’t have time for that lol
