Hello and welcome to Orchidboard :waving

I checked in Orchidwiz and found this:

Prosthechea fragrans is the accepted species for E. (Encyclia) fragrans

...and this:

Prosthechea fragrans is the accepted species for Epi (Epidendrum) fragrans

"They" keep changing things around...it's hard to know what's what ;)

We'd love to hear more about you and your collection...and we have the perfect place to do that!
