    Hi there,

    Just got confuse about G. Martae & G. Elegan. When I google it, the flower seem same to me. How to differentiate this to grammatophyllum?

    The lip is frequently the deciding factor. I haven't looked into it carefully, but it may have to do with the number of "ridges" on the lip. One seems to have 4 ridges and the other 6. There are many mislabeled plants on the internet. Perhaps someone here who knows the genus can help.
