I thought possibly "Golden Shell" again assuming it would be yellow and some
cockleshell features of the Prosthechea.

Well, I first thought, 'Yellow Octopus', but then I remembered the old
Beatles tune. How about 'Yellow Submarine'? (Some of 'em gotta be yellow,
right?)

If some of the progeny keep the gold colour & the slender petals & sepals, how
about "Goldfingers"?

Lawrencianum, Kath????

Considering the Slc is the "mom", there probably would be a lot of yellows,
but I speculate the shape might vary all over the map, from skinny, twisted
segment catts to yellow cochleatas. It was a fairly nice capsule, but no
point in counting chickens yet...

I live in N Calif where Berkeley is the school and the Lawrence/Berkeley
radiation lab is a big employer. Hence the subatomic particle connection

If it was a Paph sanderianum that went from flask to bloom in 5 years,
maybe...

That "squid" thing Tom mentioned is something to think about, but we're
years from that, if at all.
