My Coelogyne cristata 'The Queen' AM/AOS bloomed nicely recently
(considering it is growing on a dark, dismal, 25% humidity Idaho
windowsill). It has always suffered from the occasional leaf tip fungus die
back, which I have heard is not uncommon in these. Any thoughts on cause,
prevention, and treatment?

By the way, I put a pic of it up on

I have never heard of this type of fungus and also want to know more
as both of mine are blooming now and the leaf tips turn brown and
eventually the whole leaf turns brown. Most distressing.
