I see the plant you are talking about is a Brassanthe Empress Worsley Roman Holiday. What does Brassanthe mean?

I think I just found out what a Brassanthe is. Is it a nothogeneric name? Anyway, I think it means guarianthe x brassavola. One of my favorite brassanthes are Brassanthe Maikai (Guarianthe bowingiana x Bassavola nodosa). I looked up Bct. Worsley 'Roman Holiday'. That is a nice one!

Welcome to OB!!

bythe way, the correct name is: Brassocatanthe Empress Worsley ‘Roman Holiday’ (which is the cross: Brassanthe Bill Worsley x C.Red Empress). Being ´Roman Holiday´ a fantastic clone! Congratulations!!
