I think it's a very educational thread too. We've all seen id photos that are unfamiliar to us. When I searched for Vanilla, for example, I finally found one photo on the net of the whole plant of Vanilla planifolia. There are many different Vanilla orchids! Dendrobiums are probably the toughest species to research because they are sooo varied in growth habit. I think it is a service to all to show the unusual plants. ....Even if they aren't show quality.
