Hi, I just bought Phalaenopsis schilleriana 'MSH'. The plant looks like a regular Phalaenopsis schilleriana. Any idea what is the meaning of the MSH acronym?

Guessing it's just a cultivar name but doing a quick search I didn't find it is actually registered.

Cultivar epithets are not registered - that is, there is no "registration authority" for them like grexes. They are required and recorded upon the receipt of an award, but that's not truly "registration" in my mind.

The 'MSH' might simply be a previous owner's initials. I had considered that it might be a shortened version of an awarded cultivar - 'Memoria Susan Hill', for example, but I can find nothing that matches the initials.

Stated much better than what I babbled out.
