a new bloom in a tree - Orchid Board

Hi,
in my early days as an orchid beginner I attached orchids in various trees around my place. Uo to now I was never here during the summer to see them bloom or not. I now see 5 of them either blooming or with buds.

Only one still has a lable and that is Blc Taiwan Queen 'King's monkey'. (first pic below) and then there is another which I'd like to give a name.

Anybody have this?

Fred

Hmmm not sure what it is but...WOW!!! those orchids are gorgeous. I especially love orange catts. Nice job! It must be really nice to walk around your yard and see these chids in bloom.

Fred those are some gorgeous blooms. It must be nice waking up in the morning to those flowers in your backyard. And we are just a couple of hours away. I've been to Naples a couple of times but not for me.

Sorry I can't help with a name for the second one but they are both stunners!

Great job

Wow, this is a thread that has come alive from almost a year ago. The orchids in the trees are doing fine but the only current blooms are from dendrobiums. I'm adding more of them as they seem to bloom forever outside. They just keep bringing up new sprouts. The king's monkey cat bloomed for a second time late in the summer and various others for the first time. They seem to have to get adjusted and mature before blooming.
