My first guess would be young Cymbidium leaves. If I may ask, how much are these going for?

I agree that they are most likely Cymbidiums.

Do they look like healthy plants? That'll be important for Dimmer to know.

Here's a link to a care sheet if you need it. http://orchidweb.org/orchids/culture/ Look at the bottom under intermediate level and click on Cymbidium.

I hope they don't freeze during mailing! I avoid ordering plants by mail from late October to mid-May because I was burned big-time a few years ago when the plants I ordered arrived as a pile of frozen mush!
