This time of year, they might be Cymbidiums, too, though Phalaenopsis is far mor common.

hi I have got a phalaenopsis in a west facing window and it is well into flower now i just tip a little bit of water now and again onto it but not to much and if im doing anything wrong well it is not complaining up to now there is 6 flowers out and 11 nearly out i have also bought some clips to hold the flowers in an upright position i would put a picture on but i dont know how you can as well dip them in rain water for a few minutes them leave them to drain and return it to the place it was. others will tell your more but good luck.
