Need help in identifying these orchids Male
Default Need help in identifying these orchids
A friend has two orchids that are flowering and needs help in identifying the plants. She says "I am attaching some photos of my orchids which are currently blooming. Not sure what these are called though - they have thick, strap-like leaves, and the big hanging plant is at least 15 years old.

Any ideas?

Suresh

Cymbidium of some sort, but I'm not good with naming them beyond that, sorry. Oh and they are very nice looking healthy plants.
