How to care for Zygonisia? Male
Default

You plant is called Zygonisia Murasakikomachi (really, I'm not kidding).

Acacallis cyanea is also known as Aganisia cyanea, and that is the name used in hybrid registration.

Zygonisia Roquebrune is (Aganisa cyanea x Zygopetalum Arthur Elle). Zygonisia Murasakikomachi is (Zygonisia Roquebrune x Aganisia cyanea), so your plant is 3/4 Aganisia cyanea.

That means your plant should be treated like Aganisia (Acacallis) cyanea - warm temperature, high humidity, lots of moisture, mounted or in very well aerated media that doesn't stay soggy, low/medium light like Phalaenopsis. The Zygopetalum ancestry means it might appreciate a bit brighter light and tolerate cooler temperature, making it a more adaptable plant than the sometimes finicky Aganisia.

Should be an interesting one. Good luck.
