I attended a very informative talk by Bob (Wellenstein?) of AnTec Paph Labs at
my local society last night.
He mentioned something that really intrigued me about the alba form of
orchids.  While talking about pests, he told us that mealy bugs were drawn
more to alba forms due to lack of antho-cyanins.  I'm not even sure if that is
the exact word, but was wondering if anyone could explain to me why this is
true?
I'm going to google the term as well, but would be grateful for any
insight...
Thanks, Terri
