Such an exotic flower for a "Bob"! I love the irony and the gorgeous plant

Beautiful Zygopetalum!

And about the spots, I do believe they come from too much heat, not water.

I love the plant, but the flag written "Bob" is just hillarious! It's kind of saying "Hey, here is my realm! Keep out, intruders!" Loved it, PinkCucumber!

CambriaWhat - we do get fairly hot here (over 35C in summer), so maybe it's combination of the two?

Luizacft - haha, you know, it started as a skewer in each pot to test how moist it is inside and later became a name tag as I hate how dirty the regular name tags get, and you have to pull them out and you pull some bark and dirt out with them, eh. Everybody over here has a little war flag States his nickname, his real name and sometimes I write how we got to that name on the back of it

Thank you so much everybody! Bob was on our orchid society's plant table last night, I was a very proud mommy! Oh and yes, I took the flag out for this and my husband victoriously waved it when they picked Bob up

That last sentence is maybe the cutest thing I've ever heard.

Ha! That's good advise to test moisture in the pot. I always stick my finger into it, but you solution is cleaner. I'll copy that idea!

Luizacft - most of my pots are see-through, there is no problem in seeing whether it's moist enough, but for the coloured ones I definitely keep a skewer around - better safe than sorry!
