How do _you_ pronounce Stanhopea?

[DavidCampen]

I have always pronounced it:
stan-hope-e-a
pronouncing both of the final two characters, long e, short a (ah).

I was reading somewhere yesterday, I think an AOS web page where it was said, that while the pronunciation that I use is common, the correct pronunciation is:
stan-hope-ah
the e is not pronounced.

The AOS pronunciation makes sense. Do others agree and how do _you_ pronounce Stanhopea?
