Can't claim much credit for this - only bought it a couple of weeks ago.
The tag says Ursula x Neo-Hawaii. Seems to me that makes it 50% lineale, 25%
discolor & 25% phalaenopsis. Given the appearance of the blooms, I'm not sure I
believe the tag. But I love it just the same.

Love this style and shape. It is to die for.

Is there a difference in the forms of lineale?
I have Ursula's lineale listed as veratifolium, and Neo-Hawaii's
lineale as Den grantii. And the discolor was known as undulatum when
it was registered.
I just wondered if they were the differences? Any chance there was
another plant known for a while as one of these misnomers?
