No. You already got the main part of your answer. The malformation you described might well have been caused by an insecticide. Check over your spraying program. Cygon is especially damaging, but there are probably others. If it's not an insecticide, give the plant one more chance. If it does that again, throw it out. Thank you Iris. I did powder my orchids with Orthene this past summer, and perhaps that is the basis for the malformation. As far as discarding, it's too pretty, and the fragrance to intoxicating to consider that. This orchid will be used for pleasures only. Ron Rico Valkaria, Fl **************Start the year off right.
