Need help identifying these orchids I just purchased! They're dieing on me

[kay22wright]

I just got 3 orchids and i'm new to this forum and the Orchid world! My one new orchids dying on me and I don't and can't find the care requirements, because I don't really know what it is! I have three, and don't know what to do! Help is much appreciated!

The first two pictures is of an Oncydium Orchid...the last pictures are both Phalaenopsis. Google the Baker culture of these orchids and you will get help in getting to know your plants. Discover a watering regimen and fertilizer...if you can go to Utube and look at videos on how to repot Phals...then it will be saved...the plants are not dying...they just need water and sunlight from your window...

This is Marty's link:

This is another link about Phals I found from another member:

Similar Species and Species Complex of Phalaenopsis

This is the AOS link on the Oncydium Culture:

to the OB! What makes you think your orchids are dying?

some of the blooms will fall off...its their nature if their flowering is over...but it doesnt mean that its dying...in fact with the two Phalaenopsis: dont cut the spikes unless it turns brown and dry. More blooms might come from it if you do your watering well...the leaves are fine and the roots are good...take good care of it...it will give you more flowers...as I see in your picture: you have a happy healthy plant...only a bit dehydrated

Here is a link to Silken's advice about Phals...you might find it quite informative:
