Snow Orchid is just another translation for Xue Pian, ie winter harvests of Phoenix oolongs, which I mentioned briefly in this article:

The genuine origin should be from Fenghuang (ie Phoenix) near Chaozhou in Guangdong, not Guangzhou. Guangzhou does not produce any tea anyway; it hosts one of the largest wholesale market in China though.
Hope this help.
