Zygonsia is abbreviated Zns.
A really great place to find all the abbreviations is the RHS. Here's a doc with all of the abbreviations:

Google is a helpful tool. It isn't a terrific source for orchid information.

A few days before I purchased this my daughter gave me a Phal. bellina in bud for Mothers' Day. I hit the jackpot this week.

I've found that most Zygos and their hybrids take a few days to develop fragrance.
I have one of these too, but mine is fragrant. It has a soft soapy/floral scent with watermelon undertones.  |

Zygonisia cynosure
Does anyone have any culture information on this most beautiful hybrid? I saw them yesterday at the 50th Brevard County Orchid Fest in Melbourne Fl.

Hey Orchonubee. I've been growing mine in S/H, and in fairly bright indirect light. I had the best experience growing in a south facing window, and then I moved it outside in the same southern area for about 1-2 months right before fall/winter cool weather kicked in. This was to tease out my first blooms from it which are just now starting to open. I'll post a picture later. But that's what worked for me
