Zygopetalum "Advance Australia"
 

This is a Zygopetulum that I bought in bloom Oct 2012. Blooming again the first time for me. It has three spikes. Color is understated but appropriate for this week. It also smells nice.

Lovely!

Beautiful!

I love Zygos and yours is beautiful.

Very nice and one of my favorites! Enjoy!

Beautiful! I had that one and killed it! It used to bloom all the time for me. Great growing.

Thank you all.


I hear you. I almost roasted this one to death by putting it out in too strong sun.

Beautiful blooms and so exciting to have three spikes. Congratulations!

all spikes going
 

Here is the same plant with flowers opened on all three spikes.

Nice! I just repotted mine as I had been told to do so every 2 years as they are sensitive to salt build up. I have 2 new growths started, but all the older leaves are turning yellow.... I can only assume that the repotting was traumatic! I hope mine recovers....

sphagnum moss
 

This one has nice roots is doing very well in sphagnum. It is watered with 75% rain water and a little tap water. The one snafu was ants making a nest in the pot which I managed to wash out without losing spikes. Maybe the plant liked the fertilizer!

Beautiful flowers. I love the fragrant smell in the mornings. I too got three spikes on my rebloom.
