Andrew, thanks for your explanation!!!! There's recently been much discussion on this topic, but my eyes just glaze over when I read them and I just get more confused. This is the first time it all starts to make sense. OK, I know I'm a newbie to Orchids, but at least a better informed one now. I think one of my hangups--without realizing it--was the fact that orchid nomenclauture isn't the same as for other plants. I kept wanting to have a name for the individual chid I have not just the parentage, and the whole naming system just didn't make sense to me. Now it all makes sense
