Zns. Cynosure 'BlueBird' (Agn. cyanea x Z. Skippy Ku) , MC1268
Zygonisia (abbreviated Zns.) Cynosure is an intergeneric hybrid between Aganisia (abbreviated Agn.) and Zygopetalum (abbreviated Z.) Skippy Ku, registered by Okika (of Hawaii) in 2007.
This extremely popular hybrid produces purple to indigo flowers with a slightly spicy fragrance. It produces spikes from the base of the newest emerging growths, most often in the spring and fall. Mature plants can produce multiple spikes. Agn. cyanea, a hot grower, imparts temperature tolerance so this hybrid can grow warmer than standard Zygopetalum. This plant is perfect for those growers in hot climates who love but can’t grow Zygopetalum.
Plants are compact with broad leaves and are perfect for growing under lights or on a windowsill or in an orchid cabinet. Easy to grow and reliable bloomer make it great for beginners. Highly recommended.
