My Stanhopea is in bloom again. Never knew its complete species ID, looks like it might be wardii except for one thing - it is almost completely spotless. Pictures I've seen show wardii having...

@brsucculents:

I got this plant back in about 1985. It was on a raft and already pretty big - probably 25 pseudobulbs. However, I didn't repot it or do much of anything to it - just left it alone...

Parental cross of Odontonia Samurai

@orchidsarefun:

You say:



I don't think this cross can be the correct parental combo.

Aliceara is an intergeneric mix that consists of Brassia x Miltonia x Oncidum - no Odontoglossum.

Cool!

No wonder, then, that many of the orchids with this award also have Chinese names associated with them. The one in my collection is Slc. Pumpkin Festival 'Fong Yuen'.

Thanks, Judi!

OSROC?

Not plant identification this time - please identify this acronym.

Thanks!
