    ooh lovely! How long did it take your spike to mature? I purchased a Zygo Advance Australia about a month ago and the spike doesn't look that much bigger than when I got it.

    What a beautiful color this orchid has. Love the dark maroon and purple. Very cool bloom, Patrick.

    Cheers,

    Beautiful, bright flowers and such a healthy looking plant. I don't see any fungal spots either, which is so common in Zygopetalums (I should know). AL
