I have posted a photo (large - sorry!) on
alt.binaries.pictures.orchids.

The plant I bought in a local shop (because of its glorious perfume)
was only labelled "Zygopetalum orchid). I later visited the nursery
that provided it, & saw similar plants labelled Zygopetalum mackayi.

But a text I have read states the species mackayi is uncommon in
Australia (text reference lost). J.N. Rentoul's "Growing Orchids" has
a photo of mackayi which looks very like mine. He also states that Z.
intermedium is very similar ("but over the years the two seem to have
become one and any differences blurred into non-recognition"), but he
has no photo.

"Botanica's Orchids" has a photo very similar to mine, but identified
as Z. maculatum. I can find no other reference to maculatum.

The plant has bloomed in Autumn. The racemes are typically 700 mm long
(about 2' 4"), carrying typically 6 blooms.

Help??
