Bl. Yellow Bird (Richard Meuler x Nordosa)

[Ray]

OK, DC. If you're going to get as serious about orchids as it appears you are, you need to work on your naming accuracy, both spelling and nomenclature.

Brassocattleya Yellow Bird is a cross of the species, Brassavola nodosa, with the pollen of the hybrid Brassocattleya Richard Mueller. Bc. Richard Mueller is a cross of Cattleya (formerly Laelia) milleri on Brassavola nodosa.

There ain't nuthin' named "Nordosa", and "Meuler" is just plain wrong.

Ray, thanks for this info - so what is the correct name, if one was to write it out on a tag?

Thanks,
