Jim, you are exactly right. In my opinion and experience, very, very few commercial sellers have changed any of their labels and thus those tags that are sent along with orchids are incorrect. I actually called two of the large, commercial growers/hybridizers (in Hawaii) and they both told me they could not take the time and did not want to spend the money changing their hundreds or thousands of labels to reflect the name change. They were both very upfront with me about that. Basically they said: "If you want to have the correct name on the labels, you will have to do it yourself".

You must have a wonderful program at hand to give me the correct names so quickly. I do greatly appreciate your effort. IF you are still in the laundry-mode, here are a few more (I warned you I had a lot of varieties! LOL):

Blc. Glenn Maidment 'Aranbeem'
Blc. Lawless Zauberflote 'Carmela'
Blc. Yonges Island 'Newberry'
Blc. Edisto 'Mendenhall' AM/AOS
Blc. Yen Corona 'Green Genie'
Blc. Owen Holmes 'Encore'

Thank You!
