Default Need Help With Name

I have a catt whose tag reads Lc. Hwa Yuan Beauty 'Spice Girl'. That name is not in RHS registry, however, Rsc. Haw Yuan Beauty is. Is this the same plant? Is my tag wrong? I'm sooo confused!

Terri,
Probably the correct tag would be "Blc" = Brassolaeliocattleya; so, with the (absurd and unjustifiable) changing in the names of the orchids, today RHS says "Rsc" = Rhychosophrocattleya, when:
Rhyncholaelia dygbiana = former Brassavola dygbiana
Sophronitis = former brazilian Laelias
Cattleya = Cattleya, for now (except Cattleya bowringiana, skinnerii, now "Guarianthe", Oh my!)
'Spice Girl' is only a clonal name

Hi Terri, checked Orchidwiz:

Rhynchosophrocattleya (Rsc) Haw Yuan Beauty is also known as:

Brassolaeliocattleya (Blc) Haw Yuan Beauty and
Rolfeara Haw Yuan Beauty

The Lc on your tag should be a Blc
It's gorgeous!

Thanks guys I get that part. What I'm wondering though is the spelling of Hwa vs Haw. Which is correct? Are they the same or different plants?
