My latest obsession is **** citrina. I don't know what genus to use for these plants.
I'm pretty sure that it isn't really Encyclia anymore, but the resources I'm finding online bounce back and forth between Prosthechea and Euchile as where it has currently landed. It looks like the activity around these orchids has been going on since the internet, so google finds out of date documents announcing the name changes and it hard to know what is current.
I'm new to orchids and wondering which source is the most "definitive" (assuming there is such a thing)?
Kew is showing Euchile, so I'm thinking that is probably right.
There is, of course, an easy fix. I could just use the indigenous name cozticoatzontecoxóchitl.
It also seems that the citrina species has now been split into citrina and karwinskii which are very similar. Either way they are lovely and I can't wait to find one or would that be two?
Encyclia Euchile Prosthechea oh my
