NoID zygos
I was in Sainsburys (UK supermarket/grocery store), and spotted a trolley full of zygos, dendrobiums and oncidiums. The shipment looked nice and fresh so I spent about 20 minutes going through it all. I picked out these two zygos, the darker one was still in bud so I had to take a gamble on how it would turn out. The lighter one is unfortunately not scented, the darker is. They were only £5 each, so I'm pretty pleased, other than finding one had a few hitchhiking mealybugs, which have had a good spray of Provado and is in isolation.

I have a zygo which looks like the darker one of yours. I love the scent.

Great find, I've never seen anything like this in Sainsburys, they usually just have Phals. I hope they may have some in my local store some day  |

One of the NoIDs is doing really well. It grows a lot of new pseudobulbs and is in flower most of the year, although this is it's best show yet.
