    hi Pradeep
    chanced upon your orchids post while browsing the net.Must say was happy to see someone interested in orchids :)

    I think first foto is of
    Epidendrum radicans, 4. its not cottonia, 5. its Bulbophylum (do you have a photo of flower?) 6. is a Dendrobium (I think its a very common in coorg, saw tons of them in brahmagiri)

    cheers

    hi pradeep
    nice to see the photographs but not so clear
    I think No. 5 and 7 are bulbophyllum no 6 is hebinaria and no. 2 may be rhynocostalis.
    anyways nice to see and would like to see your other photographs

    Habenaria is a terrestrial Orchid, here 6 is Dendrobium. mostly Den. aqueum !!
