Thanks Steve, so this isn't what I'm looking at. Got any idea of what this
is? If it is a messed up spike, what would you call it? The right keyword
will lead me to the right search on the net. I can send you a picture if
you cant find it at Alt pictures.

pictures
of a blind sheath so this is an assumpsion.

If it is, should I just cut it off or let it die on its own. who else
had
this happen to their orchid- not much info about it
