Hi all! I am new to this forum and new to the orchids growing. I wanted to grow these wonderful flowers since some years ago, but only now it became possible. I hope to find many valuable recommendations here. Warning: I will ask many questions!
And here goes my first question: could you please help me to recognize the types of the orchids I've bought?
I've got 3 phalaenopsis and 3 dendrobiums, but at the shop they didn't know nothing more about them.
Phalaenopsis:
This one must be Silky Moon. Am I right?

This, I guess, might be Mad Milva.

And i've no idea which is this one:

And the dendrobiums:

Sorry, if I did something wrong. And sorry for my English, it is not perfect as it is not my native language (I am Ukrainian and just moved to US a month ago).

Welcome. You've done nothing wrong and your english is very fine. I can't help you on the identification, but just wanted to give you a welcome to the friendliest orchid board on the web.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
