I may have posted a query on this a long while back, but
anybody who has access to Wildcatt, please could you help.

Cattleya bicolor x Brassavola digbyana

All I can remember is either "ruler or river" in the name?? I aquired the
name from some kind person on this group but the info went out
the window with my old hard drive!
Cheers Wendy

This is an old cross dating back to 1908, and is Bc Calypso.
It's of interest to me that if one searches for the cross using Rhyncholaelia,
the answer is no registered hybrid.

My WildCatt comes up with Bc. Calypso. Perhaps the "ruler or river" was in
the clonal name?

Not sure on the Rhyncholaelia bit?

Thank you Kenni, for your help. It rings a bell now & you are correct, it
was "Bold river or ruler"?
