Default Why you can not id a phal hybrid

just to let you know that this is why it is impossible to id a phal hybrid with out the correct name. i have a Phal. class president which is a very old hybrid made back in the late 60's by hausermann. the list into making this goes all the way back to 1927. as you can see by the list that this is why there is no one that can id a noid by a picture regardless of how much they appear similar, and by switching one of these around would change this all together

It is impossible to ID a NOID but some like to have a name that bears resemblance to keep track of what they have .. I think 'My Little NOID' is a perfect name for any orphaned orchid

I didn't quite understand that long list, but in any case, can't there be some sort of notation, like "HLL Phal. Class President" to mean "hybrid that looks like Phal. Class President"? I'm going to use that.

You can create any sort of notation/labeling you'd like for your own reference...it's just not something you'd want to use formally. But, if something like that helps you keep track of things...go for it.

Why you can not id a phal hybrid Male
Default

I have a couple of NOID Phals that I have nicknames for.

One is a very large white Phal that was a cast-off from a friend that just did not want to bother getting it to re-bloom - nickname "Big White"

The other is a NOID that for a few years has reliably bloomed around Mother's Day - nickname "Mother's Day Phal"

A good reason for trying to assign a "looks like" name to a plant (as wisechild suggested) may be to get a better handle on the culture needed. For example, I have some Paphiopedilums that are clearly a Maudiae type; mine have names, but if they did not, I would take care of them like a Maudiae, based on appearance. As dennis points out, it would probably be difficult to judge the species that might have gone into producing a Phal hybrid, based on appearance, due to the long history of complex hybridization in Phalaenopsis (same goes for many other genera, such as Cattleya types).

Using the registry, I traced back the entire lineage of my potinara Dick Smith. Going back through every family tree branch, in the end it has 285 ancestors spread over 23 species. For instance C. dowiana was used a bunch and represents 33.4% of the genes. But to exactly duplicate the 'Dick Smith' gene percentage from scratch in the same way it was made would require over 150 breedings. And even then it wouldn't even look the same, if you started from scratch with the species because different genes would fall out.

Not to mention that you would not have the original clones that were used to produce the crosses in the first place...

All my noids are giving numbers to go along with a pic of the flower or plant, it helps me keep track of who's who's
