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.
The Stanhopea Guy
Gongora galeata
Something a bit different to stanhopea but closely related. This guy is found in Mexico in mountain rain and cloud forests at altitudes of 600 to 1800 meters.
I've had this for years. It almost grows as well as tigrina. Flowering every year around January - February.
