What does Japhet mean?
Hi, I am very interested in large cattleyas now, and I have one that is blooming and has one big bloom per stem. I am looking now for smaller clusters of blooms on a stem. Several smaller flowers per each stem. The word Japhet came up with a sale orchid at Housermans, I have been looking at and thinking of getting as soon as Chicago thaws out. Does Japhet refer to the color, or the habit of having multiples small blooms per stem? Is it the shape of the flower? For instance, this one sale orchid had a longer "trumpet" type shape, and in a way looked more like a daffodil than some other Catts.
I'd like to know the exact definition of Japhet.
