Ken, I think it's very responsible of you to make sure your customers have the right names. I'm like Elaine, I don't really care too much. But it is annoying when I post the name of whatever I have blooming on here and people tell me it's changed to this or that. Especially if it's not an old plant, I'll think, "Why isn't it labeled correctly?" And I have a few that have little typos and such that I've discovered when I Googled my plants to see other peoples' pictures. Considering there are people who are really in to showing their orchids and want to have the current, correct name, I think that makes you a responsible seller and it may be a reason people will buy (or continue to buy) from you. I would certainly want a knowledgeable seller because I don't know much about these plants! Still learning, though! Hilarious!
