Hello you smart people!

My loving husband saw these on sale at home depot and grabbed them right away! They were like $4.00 each!!

Do you have any idea what they might be??

They are Maudiae-type hybrids, but it is near impossible to tell which particular grexes. There are thousands of hybrids like these out there, and many are not even registered. The second one appears to have sukhakulii influence; that's all I can really tell you. Hopefully someone here has a plant that looks exactly like one of them, but it's not likely that anyone can be completely sure of what they are - these crosses are variable and all have subtle differences.

Still beauties even without names and soooo cheap - I can never get paphs for less than £5 - that'd be about $8 on a good day!!

The last one (the green one) looks very similar to mine which was labled as Paph. Maudiae, but there are several others which look very similar.
