It was an eBay seller but she's no longer a member. The store name was Microvulgaris in the Greenhouse.

Thats really beautiful Roly:bowing
I went to a flower show and a Zygo followed me home.
I haven't figured out where to put it. What does yours like?

Mine gets morning sun followed by dappled light the rest of the day. Mist daily early in the morning. Fertilize with liquid fertilizer every 7 to 10 days and has a 17-17-17 fertilizer sprinkled on top of the medium. It's potted on a clay pot with bark, perlite, charcoal and spaghnum moss mix. If they days are overcasted or cool I skip a day or two between watering. In the summer they get more water specially rain water.

Good point, I'll probably keep it a little further away from a south window. I don't get as much sun as you.

Roly the Orchid Junkie,

In order to enable your addiction, I have some additional info on your hybrid Tatachilla. It is technically a Zygoneria, not a "simple" Zygopetalum. Two of Tatachilla's eight "great-grandparents" are Neogardneria murrayana, related to Zygopetalum yet distinct.
