Looking very good,
I'd say, keep doing what you've been doing, it's working. :-)

Your orphan is a Phalaenopsis,
it is a good choice for indoor growing,
being generally happy with the same temperature ranges that keep us happy.
It likes good light, but little or no direct sun,
unless it were to catch a few rays of early morning or early evening sun.

Your Paphiopedilum looks great, too,
not one I grow, they don't like the conditions in my glasshouse. :-(

that is so lovely. I tried many years ago to grow orchids in Namibia. I decided to give up. I still admire them though.

whatever you are doing that is very good.

I think I could do with some advice from YOU not the other way around!! You certainly seem to be doing all the right things for your orchids whereas I seem to be murdering mine. Thank goodness we don't have a homicide squad looking for plant killers!!! Strabgely enough it's about the only kind of plant I give the kiss of death to - everything else seems to thrive.
You really have greenfingers when it comes to growing orchids and your photographs are lovely.
