    Default Zygocolax Rheine Blue

    I moved the plant last year and I think that it may be not getting enough light for the flower count is down this year. Guess I need to relocate this again.
    I love the color of this hybrid but it didn't retain the fragrance of the Zygo parent.

    That bloom looks like it is reaching out of the monitor. Cool photo and bloom!

    I love the contrasting colours of chocolate and the purple.

    I didn't realise that zygo's are scented, now I am really going to have to get myself one, instead of just thinking about it.

    Lovely flower even if it is scent-less! I just bought a Zygopetalum Kiwi Geyser. It was an impulse buy (well, they are all a bit of an impulse buy) but I didn't have this one on my list to begin with anyway...
    It wasn't until after buying it I started hearing about it needing cool conditions...what is the max temp this guy could stand? And what kind of mix do you keep them in?
