The problem is not the lack of a moderator; it's the incompatibility of orchid names with our database. In the case of Rlc Mystere 'Natsumi,' for instance, there is no place in our database for a grex. It can't go on the line for the botanical name because it isn't a species, and also because the system will automatically correct any name following the genus to lower-case. The grex name can't be added on the cultivar line because the system automatically encloses those names in single quotes. I've been trying to get around it by listing the grex as the series name and the clone as the trade name. That's the only way to have one part of the name in single quotes and the other part not in single quotes.
