My zygos are a riot of colour at the moment, but unfortunately they are also all limp and leathery, have been for quite a time before they budded, What can I do to restore them to their usual plumpness. Irene

Can't claim to be an expert, but when mine get like that I simply dump the plant in a bucket of water for a few hours, just level with top of the pot, then allow it to drain. This gets rid of dry pockets in the potting mix. Works for most indoor plants.

This can sometimes be a fungal problem, if it continues after the dunking in water, maybe I can help you...
