Have you seen the current issue of Orchids? Have you? Did you know that
aurantiaca and skinneri are no longer Cattleyas? Huh? Huh? Ditto
bowringiana.

And on pg. 659 - top right photo and lower half of the page - what kind of
labeling is that?

"Guarianthe (syn. Cattleya) x guatemalensis 'Barbara Sullivan' CCM/AOS
(skinneri x aurantiaca)"

And on pg 661, they identify bowringiana in one picture as "C." and in the
one below as Guarianthe (syn. Cattleya).

This is getting stupid.

Oh gosh. I've been putting off reading this thread because of it's size.
(my post will take it to 50 posts) By complete coincidence I finally
started reading the current Orchids and last night I was noticing
exactly what you are talking about including the contradiction on page 661.
Well, I'm going to bed now. Maybe tomorrow I get on into this and see
what everyone has been talking about.

Is "Orchids" mailed (or sent by bicycle maybe) from your town? I just got
mine on Friday. Georgia ain't that far from Florida.

Good grief! We should be getting the October issue in about a week!
Sometimes they are late, but usually they are timely. I have heard others
(right in this area, too) say that they rec'd issues late when I'd rec'd
mine on time.

Go figger.....

When there is a reason to compare when the magazine arrives, I'm always
one of the first to get it. I live up north in the middle of nowhere.
Maybe they send to the ones who have been members the longest first.
That seems fair since I've been an AOS member since 1976.
Seriously though, I'm sure they would do some sort of pre-sorting (by
region) for a better postal rate, unless the volume is too low for that.
Maybe your mail man is a budding orchid grower.

PS The plastic is still on when it comes to you, right? Any tape? ;-)
