Hi Gramma, Hope all goes well with your hubby & that he can gets
treatment soon.
I see Dave has posted a reply & it's good to get advice from
someone in your neck of the woods.
We use Physan for fungal type problems not sure what product
you have there. Also you might check all the other plants as well
since you're growing outside.
Would love to see some of your paintings which you could post
at alt.binaries.pictures.orchids
or a URL would be fine here.

Hi Gramma, Just noticed that no body has answered.
Could be aphids, slugs, grasshoppers or some type of worm???
You could spray with soapy water & alcohol.
I would move that plant away from the others just to be
on the safe side.

Thanks Wendy - I didn't want to spray until I knew something that was
safe to use.
Isn't alcohol just great for sooooooo many things [g]

What I have done is cut off the offending flower and brought the plant
inside.
I found some itchy titchy black specks that looked forever like dirt
crumbs on the underside of one leave and I wiped them off with a
cloth, although they weren't moving or anything. Then I just went
round and wiped all the other leaves with a soft damp cloth and at
the moment it is looking good
