This was said to be Phal. gigantea, but I doubt that.

Hmmmm ..... I am surprised why the organizers would allow a plant displayed with the wrong name moreso that this is supposed to be an "International" orchid show? Kind of embarassing don't you think?

The plant in question looks more like a hybrid - perhaps between a gigantea and a lueddemaniana???

I don't know. This was my first orchid show and I don't know how it all works.
To me it looks a bit like Phal. Jade Gold (venosa x gigantea), but I'm really not sure.

Super show and super pictures - took an age to download onmy ultra high speed internet link of 0.5 mbps! But well worth it.
Bad Salsuflen is a super place too. We stopped there overnight on our way home to England after the EOC Last year.

Oops, sorry for that.
Well.... we just headed to the show and back again, no time to have a look on the town around.

Nobody verifies the names of orchids entered in a show, at least in the United States. It is very common to see mislabled plants. During AOS judging the judges sometimes will disqualify a plant they think is incorrectly labled, but this does not affect the ribbon judging. I know someone in my society that routinely wins trophies with a magnificent NOID Dendrobium.
