We had two open at the same time with different color tones and asked ourselves the same question! We looked into it and decided that they were both P. venestum. You learn something new everyday with orchids!

Tindo,
Are you sure that's a venustum? It does not look at all like a venustum - the shape of the po0uch and petals, the coloring of both, everything looks wrong on this if it's a venustum.

That's not a venustum. It's a very nice album callosum, or a hybrid thereof.

That might be a venustum hybrid with a Maudiae type, but not the species.
