drey415 is on a distinguished road
let's play- "tell me the name of my orchids!"

alright, i bought a few orchids for cheap- the vendor likes me, she said i look like her son... hehehe. so, she gives me a few orchids for free every weekend, but they are not labeled... i hope you guys can help me, i know it may be hard, but if you do have the same kind, please inform me. all the phals are the same size except for the last one, it's a bit smaller.

oh, the first one is "sherry baby"- i think. the fragrance is of chocolate, vanilla, sweet raspberry, and lipstick... i know it's kinda weird.

First one...correct.

The other Phals may be a bit harder to work out, but the last one slightly resembles a Fanjans Fireworks, but a lot of Phals look very similar, so I won't stake my life on it.

Sorry, that's the best I could do.

The correct name of the first is Oncidium Sharry Baby. The others, the Phal hubrids will be impossible to ID because there sre so manyhybrids that look alike and so much varistion within some hybrids. You'll just have to enjoy then as Phal hybrids.
