Pod Parent Flower after pollination
 
 
Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
 
Comments: Zygopetalums are known as Cymbidium companions as they grow under similar conditions. Both seem to enjoy the morning sun.

Parent plant: Long-lasting flowers with a SLIGHT fragrance (not overpowering like most Zygopetalum species); in fact, flower remained on the pod at the time of harvest. Medium-sized plant.
