Zygos bred for yellow background color Male
Default Zygos bred for yellow background color

Couple of years ago, I bought 10-12 seedlings from Casa de las Orquideas. One of the crosses was an attempt at breeding flowers with yellow background (in place of usual light green).

This one (Pbt. Kiwi Gold 'Sunspots' x Z. Kiwi Korker 'Kutie' AM/AOS) comes pretty close. Flowers are about 3 weeks old, shape was much better when they first opened.

4/14: Edited to add photo of flowers from another plant of the same cross. Not as yellow, but very distinct spotting.
