Need help with their type or shell I just call them Fred? :-)

This is a second part to my not completely IDed orchids. Do you think you can help? The yellow pap could be ( I think) Primulinum or Pinoccho Yellow but not really sure... Those other two- have no clue! Any suggestions?

Ta,
Lenka

The first picture is a Zygopelatum hybrid. It might be hard to ID it exactly.

Here is a site of paph species and hybrids - Maybe you can find it here
Orchid Photo Galleries - Paphiopedilum / Paph species and Hybrids.
I hope it helps

Yeah I would say the first is definately a Zygo, but have no idea which one. The second could be Paph primulinum or Avalon Mist (though probably not the latter as it lacks the usual white halo on the dorsal). The third one is probably a Paph Maudiae coloratum hybrid (there are far to many of these to get an ID), but it could also be callosum, lawrenceanum or barbatum. These three species are very similar and hard to tell apart, but I think it is less likely it is callosum as that species has a very large dorsal and typically a lighter-colored lip (though it has many different varieties). I hope this helps.

Thank you all for your help, even without proper names they are my girls!

LOVE the zygo! Purple is my favourite colour, and the last phal is just up my street! Did you get these from tecoes? too!!!!

[Lenka]

Thanks Cupcake, in real the colours are much more vibrant and i got the Zygo in Homebase and Paphs from Colombia Road flower market in London.

The first one may be Zygopetalum Advance Australia 'Hof'... not sure about the Paphs.

Any ideas anyone?

I am new at this, and need help. Is this an orchid or not?

Greatful for any help.

Hi Kristina, it is definitely an orchid. Could be a dendrobium of some sort. You also have a keiki growing on the spent flower stem. Bonus, another baby plant! Congrats.
