Sap drops under leaves or where blooms meet inflor.

[nogreenthumbs]

I've noticed that my new GramCym Mem. Nathan Newman 'NN' has sap drops that collect at the blooms or where the blooms meet the inflorescence or just at random spots underneath the leaves.

Is there any significance to the drops? Are they a sign of health or stress or an issue of some sort? Or are they just what they are with no major significance either good or bad?

I think they may have been there when I bought it (I've only had it about a week and a half). But they do seem to grow. I know that plants normally transpire, but I'd like to see if this is normal to see the results in orchids. Also, it looks like pretty little water drops, but if I touch it or grab a bit with a Q-tip, it's much more thick and viscous than water. the drops are so small, I'm not sure if it's thick and sticky or thick and slippery. Considering where I'm finding them, I tend to believe that they have been created by the plant and are not something that was applied before I purchased it, but I could easily be wrong about that.

I did notice my Catt Lc 'Ruby Lip' had a couple of tiny drops on the end of a new growth about 1" long today when I got home.
