Blemish on Phal
Default Blemish on Phal

Hi

I recently noticed some white bumps on one of my Phal leaves. The bumps are hard and I guess the best way to describe them is like a pimple. At first I thought they were some sort of insect, but they didn't scratch off with my nail. I've attached a picture. Any idea what this is?

I think it's oedema. Read more here: PP244/PP164: Physiological Disorders of Orchids: Oedema (thank you, Camille, for this link!).

Not infectious, not spreading, just not looking nice.

Your welcome!
I think that I had actually bookmarked the link a year or so ago at least when someone else had posted it here. Figured it might be useful again!
