Here's a pic of my Zygopetalum (Z. San Dieguito 'Miki' x Z. Imagination 'Sparkles') I've waited a long time for this honey to bloom.... It survived the ice storm and then some!!!

Congrats, it's so pretty!

Thanks! No fragrance...at least not yet. It has a south window in upstate NY-USA. I have it in a bark mix-(Schultz orchid mix) I spray the top of the mix every day with a spray bottle. Sometimes I put a weak fertilizer solution in the bottle. (about once a week)

I'm happy about this one blooming, because it arrived to me several months ago from e-bay, with the leaves in a "wad"! I've been slowly trimming out the crumpled foliage, while caring for the fresh foliage.
