Have you come across this hybrid? I purchased one at the 2009 South Florida Orchid Show. I have been told that it likes cool weather and to not let it get warmer than 75 F. Just what I needed, an orchid that has environmental requirements that is hard to have in South Florida.
Well, anyway....I have kept it indoors in the air-conditioning all summer and even into December. I have put it out just today since we should be getting cooler weather.....finally.
I have not been able to find this hybrid on Orchidwiz. I have found a very few mentions of it on the internet, but with very little information. I am hoping with the cool weather that it will bloom. It typically blooms in the winter. This will be the first year of me trying to get it to bloom. When I bought it, it was in bloom with the typical Zygo coloring with a VERY STRONG fragrance.
I will update here on the blog with a picture, if I get a bloom.
In the meantime......let me know........do you know anything about Zygopetalum Ryan's Moonlight?
