Phalaenopsis noid

By Meanie


Phalaenopsis noid (Orchid)

This flower has a messy upper petal as a result of my allowing the water to dry up under the pebbles that I stand my orchids on. The resulting drop in humidity meant that the bud "stuck" together requiring my help to open properly.

It looks great! At least yours has no insect damage...like I have on my orchids flowers now.

The only bug hassles I had was the aforementioned Totrix moth caterpillar trying it's luck on one, plus what I presume to be a bird pulling one out!
The humidity tray was a silly mistake (I've not been well)!
