Thanks for the info on the brassia. I think that my brassia might be acting
like Alison's. I haven't noticed any rotten areas, so I will just carry on
as usual.

om...
My brassia went quite black around the bases of the older bulbs; it
seems to be large patches inside the bottom leaves (I'm sure there is
a proper term for them but I'm a beginner; sorry) & right at the base
-- but it is still growing & blooming profusely. I thought it might
be from water collecting in those leaves, so I do water carefully, &
it's well water so no chlorine... I am not sure what might cause it
but if your plant doesn't look sick otherwise maybe it isn't a big
problem? The old bulbs do shrivel eventually & maybe the plant is
still a little shocked from the change in location?
