Lindsey, look at those leaves on the Rhychostylis, they are a lighter gray green color with slight furrows running lengthwise from the base to the tip of the leaf. I think that is typical for a Rhynchostylis.
Also the roots coming out from the plant. Phalaenopsis roots are a bit thinner and almost perfectly smooth. I think those Rhynchostylis roots are a little thicker and tougher in texture. They are similar but different.
If you guys have a Rhynchostylis handy, go check it out!

I was just floored because those flowers looked so large to me! Unless it's trick photography?!

I just measured the blooms on the Rhynchostylis, They are just a touch over 1 1/4" . Not sure if they are fragrant, I will move the basket. It is still close to the glass for maximum light and out of my reach to stick my nose into it. We have lousy weather today, so it is definitely a greenhouse day/ cleaning catch trays .etc. And yes, those roots are really thick and sturdy, I will take a pic.

Lindsey, the 'Cheetah' is a cutie!

Well then the angle of the image fooled me.
I think for now it could be labeled as Rhynchostylis gigantea 'Spots'.

A closer look at 'Spots'! I bought the plant firmly planted into straight Sphagnum, but knowing that my watering practices would kill it in this medium, I moved it right away into a basket and anchored it with some Coconut fiber. The roots took off!

And those two blooms are very fragrant!

I'll say they took off, it looks like more roots than foliage. Impressive!

Same variety, but another plant blooming in 2021.

My pretty little Phal Chia E. Berry with first blooms ever!

Congratulations!
It sure has nicely patterned flowers.

The shape of the petals is certainly unique.

Pretty!

That's a beautiful Phal , Nancy! and with so many buds, that's going to give you a nice long show
A bunch of new stuff here in the past few days.



first time for this one to bloom Recc. Lemon Twist 'Myakka City'



V. Kultana Fragrance X luzonica has been quiet for a couple of years but now with a few flowers. I don't grow very many Vanda plants but it cracks me up how flat they are.



This Grt. Renate 'S & W' was divided this summer and I'm shocked to see both pieces with 3 spikes on them...here's the first to open

I sure love to see these beauties here in the morning!!
Renate must love you guys!

My Paph spicerianum, which I should have repotted last year, has a bunch of spikes in the works this Winter. Here is looking at you!!

Lc Miss Wonderful with its crazy blooms

and some nicely fragrant blooms on the Den Specio-kingianum 'Madame'

Ralph's supermarket special:


Probably Jacqueline Concert per Big Bill:

I think it has a few thrips.

Noid (tag faded out) that I'm plant-sitting for a friend:

The Paphiopedilum blooms always make me crack up, Ursula. They look like they have humongous chins.

Edited to say (we cross-posted): beautiful blooms Diana!

Diana, nice blooms!!

I think many Orchids have great faces, if one takes a closer look!

Talking about some really weird Orchid personalities?
These are all old pictures of mine, the plants are no longer with me, but they were truly enjoyed. These were/are Winter bloomers in NJ.
Bulbophyllum patens is in the database, but here is another view

and there are my all time favorites- Sigmatostalix ( now Oncidium) eliae

and Sigmatostalix unguiculata

Weird enough?

OMG, Ursula. You were growing baby aliens, large cannibalistic insects and sea creatures! Love them.

right?

Maybe they should be in the "critters" thread.
