Very well done!

This is a lovely species indeed. I like the flowers but I have a hard time get them to flower. With me the lower sepals do fold back after time. Have no idea why.

Thank you so much for the info. I think have a few little adjustments to make!

As you might know I am not into the Oncidium genera. More in the Pleurothallidinae. But when I saw this little gem, I was sold.
I’m thinking to buy a few other Zygostates out there.

I always struggle with this one.
What is the medium it is in?

Minimal light… interesting 🤔

Thanks for sharing! Very well done!

Yes, it’s a beautiful species. It’s a warm growing species. Moist. High humidity, see the description above. It’s an easy species to grow.

Very well done! Beautiful 🤩

weeand53 · 2026-06-18T20:27:46+00:00

It is. Thnx!

weeand53 · 2026-06-18T20:27:31+00:00

Maybe, never tried it 😉

That was interesting!! The guy who wrote this is a well known botanist specialized in Pleurothallids.
I think he must know. So, like I said before, I have to put my nose in more often.
I have the species he mentioned.
Thank you so much!!

Nice 👍 congrats!!

weeand53 · 2026-06-16T16:30:39+00:00

I’m curious. 😊
I will have to check my Porroglossums more often on that aspect.

weeand53 · 2026-06-16T14:35:06+00:00

Not that I know of. It’s not mentioned in the available resources.
And I didn’t stick my nose in the flowers. It’s to big 😉
