Full Lable on this Orchid Male
Default

I think Ray covered it. Bratonia Shelob 'The Weed' is a perfectly legitimate name that was probably chosen for a vigorous cultivar when someone decided to clone it, but such a name would never be registered in any way, and only officially recognized if it was awarded. But it has not been awarded. Perhaps an awarded parent was listed on the tag?

Since Bratonia Olmec is a parent of Bratonia Shelob they are virtually impossible to tell apart unless specific clones can be compared. Bratonia Olmec 'Kanno' HCC/AOS is well known, but looks even more like Shelob than most, and we don't know what 'The Weed' looks like. If you have a good picture of your plant's flower I can probably be pretty certain if it matches 'Kanno' or not, and apparently it should be Shelob if it doesn't.
