Hakumin,

I was not expecting this if Tenkobai is registered and suspected it was a hybrid especially do to the shape of the tepals and lip.

Is Tenkobai registered? If it is, could it be that in its VERY distant past that Tenkobai had a
non neof. ancestor that somehow manifested itself during the two mutations involved in the formation of Mebina?

I know you are adamant about the rigorous effort before a Neofinetia is registered but an event that occurred 50,000 years or so ago, who knows? Not trying to be argumentative, but this plant seems too strange (and I like its uniqueness).
