Zygoneria Adelaide Meadows - Orchid Board

This is my only Zygo., but it really makes me want to get more of them...I love the emerald green with the contrasting brown and purple/white lip. I got this from Home Depot about two years ago. After only one spike last year, it's really showing me that it likes the new greenhouse, with a rewarding three spikes this year. Two of them kind of blend together, so it's hard to tell there's three.

I love Zygos but only have one thus far

This one is getting added to my "must have" list

It is one of the more striking Zygos I've seen.

Beautiful!! Home Depot had a Zygo? I've never seen one, if I did I would have bought it

Mine is like that right now, too. But every once in a while, they'll get something good. Plus, there are three Home Depots on my way to work, so I get to broaden my search.

Stunning Jason and I too, love these colors together. I've never had one of these, have always wanted one but am afraid because of the summer temps here. No GH, unfortunately...mine are on an enclosed patio. Someday though....

Great growing!!!

I think you'll be okay with one....mine was on a patio for about a year, and it seems to be pretty heat-tolerant, too. As long as it gets med-high light, it'll do just fine.
