The v-r is a nice one, the v-m is a hybrid.

Is v-m surely hybrid? How can you make difference? I m not an expert at cochlos, I just wonder.

Don't get me wrong Istvan, I like your plant very much, but I agree with Martin that it looks more like a hybrid style "Pinocchio". You can compare with my v-m at the left which I belief is a more typical form than yours at the right. I am looking in v-m for highly flexed flag, pointed and narrower lip, Margins of petals strongly undulate. very typical staminode.

Many thanks, I have no bad feelings at all, I m glad to have so good orchid friends here. I accept, it is a hybrid. I got it as a gift.
