To the best of my knowledge all the stanhopea names are correct. Whenever I'm not sure about a name I'll make a note in the post.
I'm a guy that likes to grow a few orchids, I'm not a botanist or horticulturalist so any friendly advice would be welcomed. If you think any of the species or hybrid names are incorrect or if you have any questions about a post please get in touch.
All images are my own. All are of my various stanhopea and related species and hybrids.

Stanhopea costaricensis (No 1 Bruce)
A species found in Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama at elevations of 500 to 1500 meters.
This was my first clone of this very varied species. Hopefully I'll be adding many more costaricensis images to this blog in the years to come.
This guy flowers just about every year anytime from late January to April.
