miltonia and dracula cordobae
Hi s.catt
I would say that there is not too much wrong with your Miltonia. The crinkles are caused by low humidity as the leaf emerges and drags against the other leaves. Be happy. The Dracula is another matter altogether. You picture marked 'dracula.mottled leaves top.JPG' looks to me like virus problems!!! Bad news!! But there is more!!(Bad news that is) You picture marked 'dracula mottled leaves underside.JPG' appeares to be the result of spider mite. (Sorry about that) Cure.... For the Dracula....the bin. For the Miltonia... make sure that it has not been in touch with the Drac. If it has, get some wettable sulphur (powder form) and mix with water. You can paint, spray or use a cloth dipped in the sulphur to wipe the leaves. I use the later method and guarantee that it works. The best way to see spider mites is with a 10 or preferably 15X glass, otherwise, you are only guessing. The damage caused by them is just like your pic called 'mottled leaves, underside'. Anyway, get that Drac the hell out of there. Hope this helps Tony |
