phalaenopsis Ids?
i bought these two from Orchard, with tags in their pots ,but all they have are numbers, with flower descriptions.
P0910-AH - yellow flower with pink lip
P0810-BE - pink flower
looks like they are from McLellan botanicals, their tags have the website orchidexperts.com on them
anyone come across these before?
thank you!

There are so many crosses that I think you will just have to love them as NOID's. I don't know why the growers can't put the names or at least their crosses on the tags but so many don't. They are lovely flowers anyways.

Yep, Noids, but what difference if they're this beautiful.

Actually, if you can get a response from any of the vendors, that's about your only chance of getting a name.

Good luck trying to get an ID, I've rarely got any replies from the big noid growers.
I don't know if retail center will be able to help you, companies keep crosses secret for a reason (so other companies don't know what they are). You may want to email them directly, someone higher up may be more likely to help!

I have same experience
I bought two orchids from OSH in Bay Area with out any ID but a McLellan botanicals logo on the tag. I contacted their wholesale email about one of the orchids, and got a partial answer: Vuyl. Cindy ‘pinky lee’ or Bllra. Diana dunn. They were apologetic that they could not identify it, but they did include a general care instructions which I thought were useful.
For what its worth, I think my orchid resembles Vuylstekeara Cambria 'Caroussel' more than what folks at Mclellan have guessed.
