two unknown Orchids

[bruno]

The first one of these Orchids (both photographied in a greenhous at Nice - France some days ago) grows between a vine or a liane..of whom are the leaves in the last image...Can someone help me in their identification? Thank in advance. Bruno

Wow! Is picture number 3 really the leaves of that pink orchid? Doesn't look like orchid leaves at all. I have no idea at all what that could be, but it's cute.

The yellow one looks like some kind of dendrochilum to me, but I don't know dendrochilums at all so I've got no idea what species it is.

The leaves do not belong to the orchid. This last was just blooming between these leaves as i specified in the former message. Many, many thanks for your attention

It could be Ddc uncatum. I have one and it looks a lot like the photo. I have no idea what the first one is.

The first is probably Spathoglottis plicata, but could be a similar species or hybrid. The second is a Dendrochilum, but there are so many species I can't guess which one.

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

First one is some sort of Spathoglottis. Most likely Spathoglottis plicata if it really is the species. This one is related to Laelias, (I think). There may have been some reclassification for this genus based on new DNA analysis, idk. It used to be under tribe Arethuseae, and subtribe Bletiinae; but now I'm also seeing it as under tribe Epidendreae, and subtribe Laeliinae. It originated in Asia - probably the Philippines, but has now spread all across the tropics throughout the world.

Second one is probably Dendrochilum uncatum. This one is a Coelogyne relative. When you get a good look at each individual flower, you'll see that they resemble tiny versions of Coelogyne flowers.

Please excuse the delay of this response... Many thanks for yours suggestions...Spathoglottis plicata and Dendrochilum uncatum. both seem very similar to my two Orchids and in all probability they are the ones . Many many thanks for your help then
