i need some help identifying...
 
these two huge orchids that i won at a raffle at the Tucson Orchid Society meeting.

the one attached to wood is acually about 6 feet tall... it is hanging on my table until i can make room. it is next to my ceiling fan :shock:

i know the second one is a dendrobium (i see this type a lot!!) it definitely needs repotting.

sorry, i don't know how to resize photos.

WOW, stunning plants!! You're a lucky guy :biggrin:
The one hanging on your table seems to be a Schomburgkia, maybe tibicinis , and the second is for sure a Dendrobium, but i don't know the exact name...I think it could be an hybrid..:waving

The Schomburgkia is definitely Schomburgkia Tibicinis. I have that same plant.
The dend is beautiful put sorry I don't know this one.

:hello Wanda....
how do you care for the schomburgkia, temp, water, fertilizer? i have never had an orchid that is mounted and i am kinda nervous :bananaslide: :bananaslide:

I kinda treat it like a Catt. They like water, sun and food just like Catts do. Yours looks incredibly healthy!
