The one on the left looks like Paphiopedilum concolor parentage. Very nice paph, definetly on my list. Don't know squat about the one on the right. Sorry. Perhaps this link can help you out?

The flower on the right may be some type of maxillaria. The concolor hybrid is very pretty. Perhaps you can check out the Southern Ontario Society for a listing of the awarded plants?

It's a Lycaste - the one on the right, don't think it's related to a Maxilaria.

Good work everyone ... you identified Lyc. xytriophora quite quickly.

BTW, the tribe Maxillarieae consists of 8 subtribes, most familiar of which are Lycastinae, Maxillariinae, Bifrenariinae and Stanhopeinae, and Zygopetalinae.

Yes it's true Cneos and Scott are right! I found the chocolate one is Lycaste Xytriophora and the other one is the rare beautyful hybrid Concolor x Muriel Constance (hard to find it in Canada, or I don't know the right source but I think I e-mailed 20 people and they don't have it... ...what to do?)

Armin, you've probably already asked and gotten an answer but here goes - were you able to contact the exhibitor or anyone participating in the Southern Ontario show?
