Paphiopedilum X ?

[calypso]

Sold to be sanderianum x praestans.

What do you think about?

I would say it is a cross of section Cochleopetalum with something else.

It's definitely not a sanderianum primary hybrid and very unlikely to have any sanderianum in its background.

This plant is a cross between something in the cochlopetalum group (primiulinum, liemianum, glaucophyllum, etc or a hybrid from this group) and one of the multiflorals like gardneri/praestans (or a hybrid thereof). So it maybe a hybrid like Paph. Jogjae or whatever that would be called under the current classification.

definitely adopted

dont see any sanderianum in this

I would contact the vendor, on the flip side at least the plant is small

It looks like Herbert Bernhart which is liemianum x gardneri

I can only second: if it says so on the tag, then in my eyes it's a clear case of mislabelling!

One cannot ignore the obvious contribution from 'section cochlopetalum' - and might one be wrong in assuming that, what we have on hand, is some sort of complex hybrid?

Hopefully the faulty tag was applied by the vendor in good faith - God knows, that mistakes can happen in some of the nurseries, if one consider the overwhelming amounts of plants being handled.

Talk to them, and hear how they would clear the misunderstanding? If you feel, they respond/handle your request in a decent, satisfactory way, keep dealing with them - if not, I for my part, would not hesitate in finding pastures new and greener!

Kind regards,
Jens
