Orchid identification
 
1 Attachment(s)
My family knows how much I love orchids so they just got me a few for Christmas. I noticed that one of them is very different t from my old ones which are phalaenopisis. This orchid I just received has a very similar look but the leaves are a darker brownish green. So I'm not sure if my orchid has received to much sun or if it's a different type of orchid.. I love my orchids dearly and I want to take good care of them. I am also very curious on how to provide the best care for my orchids.

It's a Phalaenopsis :)

I can't see the leaf color, but it could be normal. Some Phals have lighter or darker foliage than others. Some naturally darker ones can become reddish / red-brown from high light.

Ami, go to the subforum linked below and look at the threads that are stickied... In those threads you will find a ton of information about raising Phals.
