Talking they all look the same

Hi!

I hadn't planned on doing this, but curiosity got the better of me. I tried identifying these myself based on common orchid types, and got confused because sometimes the flowers match up, but the plant part does not ???

All three are in the same large, deep pot full or coarse orchid bark. Mom gifted them to me 2.5 years ago, we cut the bottom of the pot off and placed them into the larger pot. They are located at an east facing window, where many times I forget to open the curtains. I am coastal, house temps average 67-74F, and my humidity remains upper 60s. I keep the window open almost 24/7. They seem to be doing well. Then they began sprouting their roots all over last month, which made me begin research.

Orchid 01: Dendro or Phal? Looks like "typical" grocery store orchid. Has a slight floral scent, and bloom lasts 6-9 months. The plant picture looks brownish, it is a nice bright green, sorry, it was early morning when I took the photo.

Orchid 02: Zygo? Appears to be a pseudobulb? Bloom lasted about 3 months, has a honey aroma

Orchid 03: Dendro or Cattleya? This one has bloomed multiple times this year, they last about a month, and has sticky dew drops all over. The aroma is quite strong, floral and fruity.

Thank you for reviewing!
