They are:
Phal. stuartiana 'Sogo' HCC/AOS
Paph. niveum
Vasco. Viboon Velvet 'Puffy Cloud' AM/AOS and
Odcdm. Tiger Crow 'Golden Gate' HCC/AOS

Thank you so much for your kind words and I'll definitely post some pictures if I can get anyone of them to bloom!
AAAHHH!!!!! You have a Paph. niveum, you lucky thing. Have you seen it bloom yet? I'm waiting impatiently for one I ordered from a specialist grower and won't have it until nearly June. Of course that's Yew Sung's (catttan) fault - you can see why if you read the thread from Member of the Year. Niveums are ethereally lovely.

BTW - If you ever get near Atlanta, the Orchid Conservatory here is fabulous - AND the new Orchid show there is about to start this weekend - and run through early April. I'd be happy to get you more info if you like.
