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.
