Do you suffer from Rhynaelionitis?
 

Dear Friends,

Allow a little bit of humor after spending the last few days being hammered
by angry customers who oppose name changes completely outside my control.

Do you suffer from Rhynaelionitis (Rln.)?

That is one of the new genera = Laelia x Rhybcholaelia x Sophronitis

There are now many new genera, including some with funny abbreviations. For
example, the new genus Peetersara = Broughtonia x Cattleya x Rhyncholaelia x
Sophronitis. It is named for a Belgian nurseryman, Augustin Andre Peeters,
who died in 1920.

Mr. Peeters may be worthy of the honor, but probably would not approve of
the abbreviation assigned to him: "Pee." This resulted in some funny hybrid
names such as Pee. Vietnam Cocktail. With a name like that, who wouldn't
buy one?

Here's another one: "Shy." It stands for Sophroprosleya = Cattleya x
Prosthechea x Sophronitis. As a result there is now an orchid named Shy.
Pecochan's Smile.

For those of you who are hybridizers out there, may I propose some new
names? How about Pee. Like a Horse? Or perhaps Shy. But not Frigid. How
about Try. Harder?

Best wishes,

Alex

Thanks for the chuckles, Alex! We've been thinking about how maddening this
must be for you, especially.

The whole thing is going to make it harder to talk to each other, isn't it?
My memory is not good enough to be able to distinguish between all the new
lingo and the old. It will be interesting to see how widely these changes
are accepted here in the States.

Well I sorta like that... There's a noir story in there somewhere....

"Hot. It was bloody hot" Carruthers thought, lighting a cigarette. "Damn
tropics." The air didn't move despite of the thudding ceiling fans. The
bargirl entered from behind a bead curtain, a chongsam wrapped her every
curve, eyes silently sizing him up. She brought his beverage, moisture
beading on the tall slim glass.

"Thanks, baby." Carruthers said, tossing a few coins on the tray which
earned him a shy Pecochan's smile. A promise of things to come? Carruther's
turned the possibility over in his mind like a semiprecious stone, then
discarded it. "Not bloody likely." He remembered his last date with a bar
girl. Two weeks later the inability to Pee. Vietnam Cocktail's always ended
with recriminations and a dripping case of Rhynaelionitis

Yeah, something like that! And in the westerns the black hats were "the
Striker boys" or something similar. Can you tell that Frank had "Shane" on
last night? The good guys were always "Shane", or "Lance" or some other such
strong, masculine name.

All,
If you go to the RHS web site they have the most recent orchid hybrid list
up. In it they tell who the new nothogenera are named for. (as well as the
abbrevaitions..)

Which one? I didn't see the listing for the new Cattleya alliance hybrid
genera in the latest notes section. Interesting that they collapsed a
couple genera into Bulbophyllum, that will make things easier in one group
at least.

posted go to the main orchid registrar's page (where you can also find the
links for searching) and click on "List of New Orchid Hybrids". The main
