In light of recent events on this forum regarding possible mistakes occurring in judging processes, leading to subsequent problems in awarding plants, I came across this:

That was originally posted in the link above under the name of paph striata 'Mendii' and was awarded CBM/AOC 2009. As far as I know, that species or hybrid doesn't exist (or does it?). So how can a plant without a proper ID be awarded? Thoughts?
On another note, there was a very nice intaniae awarded as well, just to share...
