Collection of NOIDS!

[Ordphien]

I'm new here....
So I thought I would introduce myself with all my orchids.
I dont actually have many named orchids.
I'm slowly trying to collect some registered hybrids.
But for now heres my NOIDs...
I know theres no way to determine the name of these orchids, but some clues to the parentage of some of these plants would be really appreciated.

Especially any of the ones of the psuedobulbs.... I'm finding the culture of these plants challenging.

This is my new paph.
It hasnt changed much since I bought it a few months ago.
But it hasn't sulked either so I'm assuming it's happy enough.

This was simply labeled "Mini Oncidium"
Its about the size of my hand. Including the flower spikes.
The flowers are about half the size of my pink nail.
This one seems to be handling my newbie blunders much better than the others with psuedo bulbs.
I have a brassia that doesnt like me at all...
Any clues?

This one is one of my favorite purchases...
Its about a foot tall..
The flowers open orange and mauve and turn brown and plum.. Finally turning a beautiful light pink with plum and dusty rose.
It has a fragrance away it... from around 4ft it smells like vanilla.
2ft like lavender, and right up close catpiss..

I'm also struggling with this one.

This is a mini phal.
Just white with a touch of blush.

This is a mini phal from HomeDepot.
It currently is in sphag and bag.
All the buds blasted and a quick unpotting revealed no roots.

And the last of my NOIDs (for now)...
Some sort of light purple phal.
I keep getting mixed opinions from the people in my life if it fits into the botanical blue category.
I say cool lavender.

dang it, i wrote a good amount to explain this but i pressed backspace by accident and its all gone

anyways, looking at the pots i think the first 3 are from matsui. the paph has culture similar to phalaenopsis. the next 2 are oncidiums both will fit to the intergeneric culture. and phals well theyre phals and will grow almost anywhere. read up on them since they have very beasic culture.

the blue one i might say is slightly different because of the species used to get "blue" but idk, i would researcg it. its lovely btw and im kinda envious as i want a blue phal. whered you get this one at again?

The first one is a Maudiae type paph. Because they are seed grown and every one slightly different and there are a lot of similar crosses you are not going to get closer than that without a label.

The oncidiums: definitely lots of oncidium in them!

Phals: mostly commercial hybrids, standard care.

The blue phal is likely to be Purple Martin, Kenneth Schubert or a related cross. I've found it quite easy to give my Purple Martin oedema (grrr - lost a spike to it), so don't get it cold after it's been watered! They have violacea in them. Does yours smell good? Mine smells amazing, though I only got to enjoy one flower before one of my cats knocked it off and destroyed the second spike! Hoping I'll soon have spike mark 3 and more luck with it! LOL
