Zygo Orchid Syd Monkhouse (Zygopetalum hybrid)
Zygopetalum
orchids originated
in tropical South
America, and they are
rare and unusual. Syd
Monkhouse has waxy,
2” flowers whose petals
are green with maroon
spots. The long purple lip
has a white edge at the
bottom. There are usually 3-4 flowers per spike and flowers last about 3 weeks.
The blooms are lightly fragrant. Zygopetalum orchids grow well in intermediate
temperatures and can go outside during the summer if they are shaded from
hot sun and watered well. We ship blooming size plants not necessarily in spike.
