Probably needs dividing! Not as strongly fragrant as some Zygos, but I like the color.

Beautiful! These flowers always give me the impression of a regal helmeted figure sitting on a throne.

Envy.
Mine looks big enough to bloom, any tricks for the Zygo?

I've done a lot of experimenting with this genera, Clark. I'm not sure I have it right yet, but I'm finding that intermediate temps and bright indirect light works the best in my greenhouse. Nonetheless, older leaves always seem to turn yellow and die.

This plant is potted in straight Prime-Agra, and watered 2x a week year-around. I had it in coconut coir (the powdery stuff) and sponge rock, but the roots didn't do too well after awhile. I thought they needed better drainage, so I changed to this. Seems to be happy.
