    They look like vandaceous orchids, probably Aranda of Mokara but can't be sure until we see the blooms.

    I agree that the first plant is vandaceous and only flowers will help narrow it down. The second is an Epidendrum though. And again we will need to see flowers to narrow it down more than that.
