Encyclia Cochleata Alba

I think that this is the wrong id for this can anyone confirm?

It seems correct to me-it is indeed an alba form of the plant....

Looks like it is probably correct though last I heard, the correct name was Prosthechea cochleata alba. (Btw, Max, the correct spelling with a species is to only capitalize the genus name as above. )

It is what the label says. This one is mine in case you want to compare

So the current name is Prstechea and not Encyclia if that is the case then I'll change the name on the tag.

What a nice looking floral raceme Jose, this is the first flowering on my plant so hopefully it will be more spectacular next year.

Dont worry max, i personally refuse to accept Prosthecea, Encyclia sounds so much better, and is easier to spell!

Yes it is but the horticulturist in me wants to try keep up with it if I can.
