Default Genus Favorites

Each orchid genus is unique. That's why I think that each person should have a favorite orchid - for every genus! What are you "genus favorites"? The required genuses are: Phalaenopsis, Paphiopedilum, Oncidium, Dendrobium, Cymbidium, Cattleya, Bulbophyllum, and Vanda. All other genuses are optional. If you do not know just say "I am not sure" or "I don't have experience with this genus" or the like. No monotypic genuses please.
Mine:
Cymbidium Bicolor (Maybe, not much experience)

Dendrobium spectabile or delicatulum! Ooh not sure!

Oncidium... not sure, I don't know the names and stuff if this genus.

Phalaenopsis lowii

Paphiopedilum micranthum

Cattleya... not sure. No experience whatsoever.

Bulbophyllum grandiflorum

Vanda Coeruela

Gongora leucochila

Coryanthes macrantha

Get back to me after I've seen all of them.

By the way, the plural of genus is genera. The plural of species is species. Specie is a word used in English to refer to a metal used as a means of economic exchange (real money, not fiat paper.)

I will post an answer, but I need a clarification. Is this for species only, or can we list hybrids?

After spending a few hours today messing with my orchids, I decided that it really is just too difficult to choose, especially where the Bulbophyllum are concerned. Each one that I own is so very unique, even out of bloom.
