Default A couple more for the experts :-)

I picked these two up from a vendor at an unrelated festival in California. The first one is very fragrant and the smell reminds me of Hawaii. The second one is also fragrant, it kind of smells like Tootsie Rolls! I am pretty sure it is of the Oncidium family, but I thought I would post it anyway. I also posted a pic of the pseudo bulbs.

Thanks!

And just for kicks, I posted a picture of my new Lady Sipper, she is so pretty!

The first one is a nobile dendrobium hybrid. The flowers remind me of Dend Love Memory "Fit", but it will remain uncertain without a tag.

The second one is (definitely) Onc. Sharry Baby.

I agree, some sort of Den nobile for the first one. Onc Sharry Baby for the second (I love this one and got one recently myself, the smell is fantastic), and a Paph of some sort for the last. The paph looks to be related to the Maudiae type hybrids to me but I can't be sure. Maudiae it's self is green but there are similar hybrids which have purple colour from either a cross of Maudiae with something else, or from slightly different parents.

The nearest Dendrobium I've seen to your picture is the Den. Nobile Starclass here.

Thanks Sunny! That seems to be the closest to any of the Dens I have looked at.
