Rhyncostylis?

[Trithor]

Are these still called rhyncostylis, or has their name been affected by recent changes?

Yep, still known as Rhynchostylis. One of the few they haven't changed.

I haven't had great luck with these in the past, but I have a new one that gives me hope.

Very nicely flowered.

As long as it doesn't become a Cattleya! :rollhappy:

Shhh! You don't want them getting any ideas!

I adore pristine white flowers (and even with pink spots on some) and this
Rhync. is such a fiiiiine example of excellent growing.

So nice!

Thank you all. I am glad they have flowered this season, as I find them difficult. I don't think I am warm enough. My understanding is that they do not want to be too cool in winter, particularly late winter when they are setting spikes.

No, actually, I think they were considering putting them into Sophronitis.

 

[NYEric]

Also now Cattleya, no?!

From what I have read, Rhyncostylis is in the Vanda Alliance.

We are being facetious, Matt!

No, no! I really meant it. I believe that Sophronitis should be reconstituted solely for what used to be known as Rhycostylis... honest...
