Warczewiczella lobata

[orchid lady]

I am confused about this orchid nomenclature previously was known as Cochleanthes and now Warczewiczella lobata, really headache. Anyway I received this plant 3 years ago from Columbia vendors at that time still no ID. This plant really floriferous many flowers from the same node , very fragrant and fresh. Lasting about 7 to 10 days.

That is very pretty, makes me want to stick my nose in it to smell the fragrance.

Zain...the best place, in my opinion, to find the accepted name of a species is located here:

Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew: World Checklist Series

You type in the the species and genus and you get the info. It is a good research tool. You can also bring up a full list of a genus, accepted and non accepted names, by typing in just the genera name. The database here is live and updated daily but sometimes it can take up to a year, after a paper is published, for it to be added to the database.

Hope you find this helpful

Thanks for this link Ron, being a beginner and at my age it may be too late to learn even half of what's in the orchid world. Although I'm proud of myself of how much I have learn in the past 6 mos. when I started this orchid hobby.
