Bud watch! Guess some species and place your bets

[Elena]

It's true what they say - a watched bud never opens. So I figured that we could play Guess The Species in the meantime. None of these should be too difficult.

1

2

3

4

And finally, this one could be a sheath or (probably more likely) a new leaf. Too early to tell but feel free to place your bets anyway

 

[SlipperKing]

#1 wilhelminae
#2 fairrieanum
#3 bellatulum
#4 ?
#5 delenatii

 

[Sangii]

2 fairrieanum
3 bellatulum or godefroye
4. tranlienianum
5. micranthum (if so let us know how you get it to bloom oke

 

[Elena]

You guys are pretty good! And seeing as you are so clever I'm going to ask for full names including var.

Rick got 2 correctly.
Lilo got 2 correctly and two are 90% there

oke:
