Posted for Rec.gardens .orchids Extremely small black dotson several
dendrobiums. They look like the osrchid was dusted with a fine black dust. They are rounded (reminds me of a candy sprinkle) adn very small. IN one of the pictures you can see the end of my first finger for comparison. When I snapped the pictures, they did reflect the flash. That made them look almost gunmetal in color. What could this be? Spore pods? -- Bruce Cedar Hill Tx South Dallas County |

You say you were able to wipe some of these off? What I see is indents. Are
the spots soft? This looks, at first glance, like bacterial spot. Wait for someone else to weigh in. Are the leaves as mottled as they appear in the pictures?

The tiny, spherical ones look like oxalis seeds.

Are these leaves dead? In the pictures they look horrible. Have you got a
picture of the whole plant? My guess is dried up sap, darkened from age/sunlight/driness that has seeped from holes left after a sucking insect bite holes. Possibly mites. Think itty bitty creme brulee sugar... K Barrett "BruceM" wrote in message ... Posted for Rec.gardens .orchids Extremely small black dotson several dendrobiums.
