Zygopetalum Advance Australia 'HOF' in bloom
Downright chuffed to have this beauty blooming. Smells terrific and to my great delight, it is working on another spike from the same growth. I should have staked her, but here we are :0
It's in sphag and I keep the plant moist (almost uncomfortably so). I didn't have any problems with spots on the leaves until I moved it to brighter light, and still only minimally. I hope the trend of nice clean leaves continues, because I think it is a very handsome plant. I keep the leaves dry other than a shower every few months. Fertilize only occasionally with whatever is close, RO water only, and rather religious about Kelp and Quantum or similar probiotic monthly.
Grown in roughly intermediate temps and 45-50% RH
I love this plant.

I'm partial to natural, too I'm thinking of bringing it for plant table at the next society meeting... I'm thinking it will be a bit awkward to transport!

Definitely take it! It is so nice that it should be shared with others.
