Default Getting closer to the mystery...

Well, RRd is Miltonia warscewiczii x Miltonia schroederiana , so that could
be it. I sent you a pic of schroederiana per e-mail.

I have a few old tags from the girl who let me dig the mystery
orchid out of the trash. Mostly Phal & Dend which is clearly
not this little plant. She didn't know if any of them
belonged to the orchid. One, however, says Milt. Ron's
Rippling Delight. I keep finding Milt. R R D crossed with
others in my searches. No straight up Milt. R R D. It seems
the older orchids don't stay around long before they're crossed
all over the place.

You hit the nail right square on the head with the 3rd
email jpg of Ron's Rippling Delight! So I guess the
Milt. RRD tag belongs to this little critter. Thanks all
and especially to Reka for offering to post my jpg and
then for coming up with the winning match! Well done
YOU!

You're welcome! blush I love mysteries (Nancy Drew as a child, and Henning
Mankell and such now) and love searching the internet.

I find if you are looking for a certain ID, have an idea what it could be
and of course, have a blooming plant, Google Images is a great way to go.
With "Ron's Rippling Delight" it was quite easy (would love to know why it's
called that!), but something like "Phal. June Melody", because of the common
words, is tougher. When using RRD, you can type that in without a genus
name, since they are often abbreviated, abbreviated badly, spelled
badly...that way it finds a lot more. Glad I could help.

Ha! I just tried it on another, sort of, mystery out of the
trash orchid. I know what it is but I don't know what
the flowers will look like. I typed bangkok green and,
bingo, the first jpg was a Den. bangkok green!

Now, I'm off to search for some of my other mysteries

Phal white moon x musashino
.... Cyngus??? (can't read the last few letters on the lable)
.... maki watanabe

Fun! Thanks again.
