Friends on the patio
Very nice indeed, Wendy.
I went looking up the lineage of the Den, and found what I believe to be an
error in Orchid Wiz:
D. Vineyard is given as 1/8 phalaenopsis & tokai, 1/4 discolor, & 1/2
veratrifolium. No argument - it's one of the photos that worries me:
D. veratrifolium is a synonym for D. lineale. Historically, very early in the
piece a terrestrial orchid - Phaius tankervilleae - was also named as D.
veratrifolium until the error in generic classification was identified.
Orchid Wiz's photo illustrating D. veratrifolium is in fact of Phaius
tankervilleae. I believe it would be highly unlikely (read impossible) for this
plant to be hybridised wirh a Dendrobe.
