I have a question. The name "platyphyllum" was being accepted in 2001. But the name "Yellow Tiger " was registered in 1984. Why in RHS Orchid Register said, it is platyphyllum x glanduliferum? I feel confused.Very nice. Yellow Tiger is platyphyllum x glanduliferum (unless you don’t recognise platy as a separate species to stonei). Stonei x glanduliferum is registered as P.Stone Praetorian.
For some reason nurseries don’t seem to recognise that name, I suspect because Yellow Tiger sounds cooler!
