In this Zygopetalum #CareCollab, I go over my 'history' with this genus. I have gone through many years during which I lost 4 Zygopetalums. Recently, I gained some new info which I share in this video which means I now have a much better chance of success.

I feel that I learn more in this kind of teaching style. I like hearing where the failures happened and what you did to change it. I feel like I could try my hand at one if I do my research to find the hybrid that will work in my environment. I think I need to watch the repot on them again too. Thank you so much Roger!! I’m off to the orchid greenhouse with my mom tomorrow! I’m so excited!

I think that when I first looked up some details, I must have stumbled on a true epiphyte and that's where I was going wrong. But the timing of any repotting seems to be the main factor.

I have (1) Zygopetalum, and one on the way. I found this video answered alot of my questions about this very fussy and finicky orchid. I have not found them "Easy" to grow in the least, not inside a home anyhow. But Roger, I thank you immensely for making this video as it helped me alot and hopefully I will perhaps add a few more Zygopetalum to my collection.

@GrowingOrchidswithRoger
@GrowingOrchidswithRoger 3 года назад
Zygos may be a good candidate for rock-wool - inorganic, so doesn't break down, holds moisture and would allow the roots to go undisturbed for many many years.

Just watched your video as well as Ninja Orchids and I thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Timing was perfect as I just purchased a Zygo a week or so ago. Had one 5+ years ago which didn’t last long. I’ve learned a lot since then and continue to learn thanks to channels like yours. I am a home grower in the US and I absolutely love Zygopetalums. Both you and Ninja Orchids were singing the praises of Michael McCarthy. Is there somewhere that he shares his knowledge so I could access it as well? He sounds like “the source” for Zygos! Thank you once again!

Very good info Roger. I'm really glad you've now had success with Zygos. I love them and their beautiful spiced-daffodil perfume - and I just managed to get another one (a Zygoneria) hybrid, so I now have 3. My media of choice is tree fern and medium bark - and it seems to be promoting better root systems in my older two Zygos than they had in a bark/moss mix. I agree that they are not shade lovers by and large - rather like Masdevallias - they like quite bright light. Not sure why both genera tend to be labelled as shady types...

@carolesykes7955 3 года назад
Really useful thanks Roger, (and Michael too 😊). It generates 2 questions for me please, one re Zygos and another re other cool growers: *I know you said to cut back on watering in the Winter if temps go down but would you say they need a rest after flowering if new growths have not yet started ? (like some say Den Phals do) and *would you say other cool growers like Odontoglossum and Miltoniopsis would also benefit from higher light and faster metabolism?
@GrowingOrchidswithRoger
@GrowingOrchidswithRoger 3 года назад
On a well grown plant, there could be new growths just starting, growths progressing and some in bloom. The reason to reduce watering is because the plant is not growing and to a degree, this applies to all orchids although some types should not dry out completely. Temperature and light levels do not always go hand in hand. Many cooler growers like bright light and some warm growers like heavy shade.

@michaelmccarthy4077 3 года назад
They grow amazingly well in sphagnum moss but I don't recommend having it fluffy, pack it in. Why? If you pack it down, it doesn't hold as much water as loose and fluffy so it is easier to control the water. Trust me, they do not mind having it packed. It does make repotting a little more complicated (unless, like me, you can take it out and spray with the hose to loosen the moss) but I consider it a minor inconvenience.
@GrowingOrchidswithRoger
@GrowingOrchidswithRoger 3 года назад
With the more delicate roots, I'm washing under the tap which has quite high pressure when/if required. It also means I can adjust the temp to lukewarm so as not to blast them with cold water.

Hi, Michael! Your comment about the sphagnum is interesting. I like the media but it doesn't like me - actually, it's more like I don't know how to work with sphagnum moss. Please, can you share some advice on how to pot up, water, and maintain orchids in sphagnum moss? Thank you!
@michaelmccarthy4077
@michaelmccarthy4077 3 года назад
@@Kokoro-Hime how you do with it is going to depend on your climate. Here in south Florida, it is generally hot so it does not stay wet too long. If you are in a cooler climate, you can still be successful with it, the secret is not to drench it, pour a little water on it and let it soak through to moisten it again. It is far easier to add more water than to wait two weeks for a dripping wet pot of sphagnum to dry. And if you can only add a small amount of water, only use feed once for every 4 waterings (one feed, three flush) to prevent nutrient buildup.
