Where to get more Zygopetalum, esp Propetalum, hybrids?

[lotis146]

So I've been on a little bit of a hunt for more Zygopetalums, and especially a Propetalum, but I have been unable to find much! I've found Zygotoria Midnight Cardinal & Zygonisia Blue Birds as well as Zygopetalum Advance Australia & Rhein Moonlight that I have. I've taken interest in Blue Birds, and no offense to the others, but I'm still on the hunt. I would really like to find a Propetalum.

Does anyone know some reputable sellers/breeders of these more hybrids? Propetalum?

Thanks!

Thank you. I called them early this year and never got a return call regarding the plants I was asking about. At the time they said their website wasn't up to date but I'll check them out again and see what's available...

I ordered Zygos a year or so ago from Porter's and got nice plants. (One I killed, but only slowly and painfully. The other is making a similarly slow comeback.)

Kalapana Tropicals also had a couple back then.

Thanks for the feedback on your experience with Porter's. Hope your other one comes back happier! I've been learning a little bit too slowly that they like water more than I am providing. Which do you have currently?

I've recently come across Kalapana, thank you, and I do see that they have more variety. I think this is one of those things that I'm just going to have to be on the look out. I've reached out to some to keep their eyes open for me. Plus this fall there's some Orchid Fests & Shows that maybe will provide me with more options.

So thank you!
