Thanks for your replies. I'll just let it alone and water normally (or maybe a little less during the winter). It was such a mess when I got it, it was nice to see its bloom. Light is very good, a...

Zygopatelum rest period

I rescued a zygopetalum that was very nearly dead. It came back, started to put out a new growth, and then surprisingly flowered. Flowers lasted about five weeks, and now a month after flowering...

Could this have been done by fruit flies?

This is a rescued plant, an Oncidium I believe. It's been treated with neem oil and Seven twice (about two months ago and then last week), but these "spots" persist. I can't find any trace of pests...

It's been at this spot for about 2-3 years. I live in Minnesota, and in summer I put up a screen to limit the light, and then take the screens down in winter when the sun stays low to the horizon. ...

Sick Phal, see pics

This is a rescue plant I’ve had for about 4-5 years. It has always been small and light green in color, but its looking anemic – sun burn? I may have fertilized a little too frequently (10-10-10),...

Are Miltassia Charles M. Fitch slow growers?

Are these slow growers? Mine puts out a new pseudobulb about once a year. It has no bugs, no bacteria/fugus problems -it's just slow. Regular watering with somewhat drying out between, 2500-3000...

There are no visible pests anywhere on the plant or in the potting medium. I'm hoping it's not a virus.

Tiny Dendrobium Antennatum with kieki’s

This is my first dendrobium, I’ve had it since May 1, 2022. The plant did nothing for about 30 days, then quickly sprouted two keiki’s low to the potting mix (high filtered light, about 3,000-3,500...

Neem oil flush vs spray recipe

Psychopsis: sunburn, bugs or virus?

Pic 1 is the effected area, it's like the leaf "delaminated". The brown areas do not flake off, no indication of pests of any sort.

Pic 2 is the front of the leaf with the effected area outlined....
