Makes an interesting display but I can't see the reason for this!!

makes it easier to see the differences or similarities????
They're cochlos - there's probably another bud/bloom right behind it! OR ....
the card is almost full, too many blooms to photograph and can't upload til ...?

Cool photo! Great to see all the species all together for size and color comparison! Thanks a lot! I greatly appreciate your photo.

Are you sending to Japan for judging?

I agree. I enjoy seeing the comparison.

Are these all species or are some hybrids? What's their names?

A good exerscise would be to do the research and see if you can figure out/guess what they are. Start w/ http://www.slipperorchids.info/

Good idea Eric!
I'll start - I'm gonna guess 2 are hybrids, the rest are species.

Ok I did a little research. I just assumed all were species and labelled all as such, I'm guessing some are hybrids though. How did I do?
Bottom right: chamberlainianum
Center left: primulinum
Top center: moquetteanum
Bottom left: primulinum fma. purpurascens
Last three I am unsure about...
Bottom center: glaucophyllum
Top left: victoria-mariae
Top right: liemianum

 

[papheteer]

Clockwise starting from top left:

glaucophyllum
moquettianum
liemianum
victoria-regina/chamberlainiamum
victoria-mariae
primulinum var. purpurescens
primulinum

I think you did pretty good Orchid Boy! I didn't do any research, I thought I'd try to exercise & stretch my brain memory cells!
I questioned the lower left as being a hybrid, I thought it was a bit too large & pale to be purpurascens and if lower center, wasn't a victoria-marie cross.

 

[Cochlopetalum]

Top left is glaucophyllum
Bottom center is victoria-mariae

Missing kalinae. Otherwise, quite good.
