New orchids needs ID

[delphiguy]

Cheers,

We got this over the weekend, along with a lot more orchids. Anyways this 2 is both in spike, the Cirropetalum has 4 spikes but only 1 survived, the other one
i have no idea, but im guessing that its a member of the coelogyne. Anyways
i hope that somebody could ID them for me... thanks in advanced.

interesting orchid species...i have two in my greenhouse one is Gramatophyllum sp (did i get the spelling right?) and another one which i cannot identify.Most space dominated by hybrid Vandas, Cattleyas, Phalaenopsis and Dendrobiums.

Randy, the Cirrho isn't open yet so ID might be difficult till it does. Then there are so many it might be hard. Check this website out and the home work may get easier.

thanks I thought that the cirro was already open, but your right its not. I checked it this
morning and found that those little nubs have opened. Will take a picture later when i get
home from work.

hi randy!
finally your first bulbo/cirrho, looks like Cirrhopetalum makoyanum, wait for the opening.

Here's the updated photos of the cirro. First photo is the front view of the blooms, second is the whole plant, third top view of the bloom and last the bottom view of the
bloom.

thanks, this isn't my first bulbo/cirro, but this is the first time i've had one in bloom (no credits to me). And to be honest, it seems that these guys are camera shy,
they're too darn difficult to photograph as the blooms/spike sways in the slightest breeze. Oh and this one isn't smelly. I still have a few more bulbos/cirro that i am
eager to see in bloom.

hi randy,

i know exactly what you are talking about, dont even breathe near em, lol.

i would id it as cirrho. makoyanum,

anyone?

[delphiguy]

thanks ron, i looked at makoyanum and it does look similar.
as for the coelogyne, i think i have narrowed it down to sparsa or merrillii, but im
leaning towards sparsa.

randy, i would also strongly lean on the sparsa, really nice one btw.

Thanks Ron, coel. sparsa it is then.

I've another here that needs to be id'ed, I have no idea what this one is,
the blooms has a spicy fragrance. Not sure if this is a dendrochillum or a
coelogyne.
