Thanks, yeah it does look Ugly and this is another reason why I had to rescue it from my Daughter as also she has ONLY just watered it for 5 years. This one hasn't came back with any new flowers this time so at least I'll re plant it with new bedding material. I was told by one of the ladies working at our local Orchid Society in Landers ,CA (Gublers) when re planting them to use what was there already for the bedding material.
