SpaceMonkey said: Ok actually do know what 4 are. they had name tags. Vuyl. Jerry Lawless 'golden gate' AM/AOS ANOTHER IS...... Epi. Rioclarense( green variety) Epi. Randiii × Epi. Cordigenum. Variety Alba.
And the other one........... Odcdm. Mini Mutany 'HOF'
We have another called....... Burr. Austin Powers 'sweet summers morning'
Other 2 are unknown. One was store bought and the other was something I got in the wild.
the reason I ask is that they look a bit over potted. If you've been growing them for awhile, and they are doing fine for you, just ignore my advice. But if they are newer acquisitions then they might do better long term in smaller pots

I always try to put my orchids into the smallest pot possible and then only transplant once the medium goes bad, or it starts over growing the pot. Just remember, their Epiphytes so when they grow naturally there isn't much medium around their roots.
PS In your first picture of the orchids, the plant nearest the end in the group shot, with the purplish leaves and large pseudo bulb. Do you know what type of orchid that is?
