Sorting it all out

Ok, the posts in this thread are getting confusing with the different orchids and the various replies. So let's sort it all out.

This pic you've posted is of a Phaius

In this picture,
looking at the flowers, it looks like you have from left to right:a paph hybrid, a zygo hybrid, a green terrestrial to be discussed later, and a phaius mixed in wiht a Paph. philippinense.
The plant in this picture is IMPRESSIVE! It looks like some sort of Paph haynaldianum hybrid...with 7 flowers!!! I think haynaldianum typically has 3-5 flowers. It must have been crossed with somethingreally floriferous to even have the potential to have that many flowers. Wow...
And finally this orchid. This looks like one of the African terrestrials. Possibly a Sarcoglottis species or Stenorrhynchos species though probably not the latter since they usually have red-to-pink flowers.

There, now we've got them all sorted out and we know what's what.
