What are these and how do I care for them?

[Rema]

So, Santa came early and yesterday I got 3 new chids, however I dont know what they are or how to care for them. They are potted in what looks like wood shavings and look very healthy.

The first 2 look like #1 Cymbidium #2 Dendrobium. The 3rd ones leaves look like a few things but I don't see pseudo bulbs. I'm curious if othwrs say the same or something else and what that 3 one might be
Good luck!!

The 1st is a cym here is a culture sheet.

2. is a den and here is a culture sheet. I notice on your den some of the leaves have some yellow in them. I don't like the looks of the shavings. I would take it out of the pot and check the roots and put it in some fresh medium.

3. I am with 1joyceh on this one. There are several geeks on here who grow them and give you some culture tips on them.

Yeah, the third looks like a phaius, or phaiocalanthe. I was given one that I have yet to coax a bloom out of. I'm told they like to be moist, and are nick-named swamp orchids, and I'm told they like to be fertilized with every watering - which may explain why I've had no blooms. Good luck with your new crew!

first one looks like a cym and the second one looks like a extremely happy den... not sure on the third!
