Well, I've been telling myself that the Orthene messed things up, but I
think I have to get real. So I packed off 25 samples to Critter Creek and
we'll see how things progress. Fingers crossed, too!

Oh my Kathy, how sweet of you to take your precious time. I appreciate you
trying to help.
You are on to something about the lip, it is different to any of the Lc's?
I will hold thumbs & cross my fingers for your plants.
You know for a few years there I had been using a systemic which I
believed caused a lot of streaking &
bollixed flowers. So not knowing this at the time I had to quarentine
them so they were outside in
the elements. Most survived, flowered again, nicely. I had a couple that
had nasty streaks thru the leaves so
they got tossed.
Good luck my orchid loving sister,
Cheers Wendy

I have done it again!!!! One of my purchases has a missing tag? There
were two of these with buds opening & I know
the one I picked had a tag? My memory is so bad, I don't even remember
who
I bought it from so can't check.
I think it was Lc (some kind of fire).
The other thing that I have noticed since the other buds have opened,
the sepal are fused together. Of all the luck!
Oh well it is a nice colour.
Cheers Wendy
