According to orchidspecies.com, the genus was named after an Italian, Dr. A.
M. Brassavole. How would that be pronounced in Italian?
Hmm? What? Oh...I must have been asleep.
No, actually, my mom is here, the temps in the valley have been up, so
we escaped to our mountain cabin. No computer there.

It would then be BRAS-sah-voh-la. As far as I know.
I will still say bras-sah-VOH-la! :-)
