This is PEOY x adductum var anitum. I don't know why it doesn't just entered as PEOY x anitum since anitum is a recognized species and be Paph Yang-Ji Diamond ? Meir said that's how it was labeled when he got it. And it was awarded under Paph Cascade Creek.

As a species anitum might not have been legally recognized long enough to have hybirds.
Thanks for sharing.

Only in the big US of A oke: You should see the anitum hybrids coming out of Taiwan..

That is an incredible clone. I just love these anitum hybrids.

As for the name, I disagree that anitum is recognised as a species in its own right. Not by the scientific botanists in any case. Still I'd be happy for it to be named Yang Ji Diamond to differentiate it from the hybrid with the normal form of adductum. The US seems to be the only country referring to this as Cascade Creek.

I have only seen one nursery here sell or have plants with the name Cascade Creek for this hybrid. I bought 3 or 4 plants from different Sources in this country all labeled yang-ji Diamond. I had to look it up when I saw it labeled as Cascade Creek. I don't know how this got started with another name.
