Repotting Zygonisia Cynosure & backbulbs
The last time I repotted my 'blue water sailing' cultivar it was set back a few months and didn't rebloom until the 2nd new growth. However this time I noticed lots of new roots so hopefully things will be OK. I split it into 2 separate plants - both have vigorous roots and 1 also has a new growth. I didn't have to remove any dead roots so used the same media composition: 70/30 medium/fine bark to sphagnum moss.
Additionally I broke off 2 back bulbs, both have roots. I have bagged these up in sphagnum moss as an experiment. Its one of my favourite orchids, so I don't mind trying to propagate it.
