    Oh...I love the dark colors on that Eria!

    What exactly does its name mean? Is it an unnamed species?

    I've never seen this one before. I love the color and the yellow tint on the tips of the petals and sepals.

    because I quote,

    "Var. (variety) aff. (affinis which is Latin for affinities.) So the term means that the variety has affinities with but is not exactly the same as the variety mentioned in the first place. Sp. (species) aff. means that the species is closely related to the species first mentioned but there may be enough differences, after further study, to make the plant a species in its own right."

    I was not too sure myself, until I asked him.
