  • Comment. I am wondering what sort of leaves it has. I think it could be cropped slightly from the left and right to reduce featureless areas. Snowman (talk) 15:12, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I guess that the lack of leaves will make it more difficult to corroborate identification. Snowman (talk) 22:16, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • It wouldn't make a difference within Cymbidium. It might be helpful outside cymbidium, but I don't think it is a genus that you'd try and identify via the leaves instead of the flower. Noodle snacks (talk) 23:29, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: There are two images of this flower in the Cymbidium article. Once as Cymbidium Clarisse Austin 'Best Pink cultivar' and once as Cymbidium Clarisse Best Pink. Neither of these is a binomial species name and no species on the article's list includes the word clarisse or austin. I suppose this is some kind of hybrid? What is its correct designation? 75.41.110.200 (talk) 18:08, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • I can only go by what was written on the label. Noodle snacks (talk) 22:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • I don't think I'd be willing to support unless this issue is resolved. J Milburn (talk) 16:12, 20 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Until name is resolved. Kaldari (talk) 00:57, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No consensus. It looks to me like it will be easiest to renominate when the taxonomy has been confirmed. However, at your option (you didn't say when you would be back), I'm willing to suspend it instead. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 14:17, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
