Very fragrant, very exotic, very easy to grow! I think you should check them out, and add one to your collection today! Buy Zygopetalum Orchids HERE: larrysorchids.com/collections/...
For future viewers ! I grow these in a coarse, water retentive media made up of medium bark, coconut husk, coco fiber, lumps of peat and compressed lumps of sphagnum moss. Repot only when new growths start with roots and never ever touch the roots (they will die off) feed high (around 250 ppm) and keep them wet. They can take quite a bit of light but never direct light. Hope this will help but keep in mind that this is not a beginner orchid. I killed at least ten before I figured out how to grow these 😁 Have fun growing
Thank you for this video. I live in South Florida and have a terrace that faces east. I just bought this gorgeous orchid. I’m so excited to watch it bloom.
Hey Luke, awesome videos man. At some time could you do one on thecostele alata? And do you guys happen to carry that one? Again very informative videos....thanks .
You say to put water on the leaves but other videos say that is how you get the black spots on the leaves. You said the underside of the leaves, is that only on the underside then?
when you say "set the flowering back" after division you mean to say that you're going to delay the time until the next bloom because the plant needs to re-establish it's roots correct? once it gets back in the swing of things we'll say, it will bloom as frequently as it did before correct? Thanks in advance
Help!! Acquired sick Zygopetalum with lots of root rot. Trimmed dead roots and potted in standard fine bark, perlite and some peat, with surviving roots on dying new growth. Very shriveled pseudobulbs. Any tricks to reviving this plant?
