Identifying Chinese-Named Orchids: Photo Submission Guide

Orchid Identification Service

Email photos with tag names to kawacym@aol.com. Subject line: "Orchid Photos" (or auto-deleted).

Limitations

• Cannot read Chinese characters.
• May not ID all, but will try.
• Best for genus-level ID from growth habit/flowers.

Better Long-Term

Learn to read labels: Genus + hybrid name (e.g., Phal. Brother Sara Gold). Join orchid society for mentorship.
