SVO 9866
(Zygo. Fandango 'Blooming Fool' x Zygo. Kiwi Korker '9 Flowers')
Zygo. Fandango, used two excellent parents: Zygo. Kiwi Korker with Zygo. Mishima Goddess. I was fortunate to see about 30 plants in bloom and picked out ‘Blooming Fool’, and why that name? Well… it blooms with 2, sturdy upright, flower spikes per growth, holding 6-8 flowers on each and does so twice a year…yep, it’s a blooming fool. Zygo. Kiwi Korker (Zygo. Kiwi x Zygo. Kiwi Klassic) is surprising not only for its flower qualities but also that it flowers with 9 flowers on a stem! Here we are looking for high flower counts on plants to bloom twice a year, and highly fragrant. Outstanding classic Zygo breeding.

These are coming out fantastic with 4-5 well displayed flowers. Every plant that’s bloomed is nice! On top of all that they bloom twice a year, once it the early spring and again in midsummer! Galeopetalum (Gptm.) is an intergeneric hybrid between Galeottia and Zygopetalum. The plants are compact growers and bloom easily in a 4” pot. I believe you will find this rewarding to grow and flower.
