Hi all, this is my rock orchid (i think?) it was donated to me so dont know anything about it.

these spots have been on it since i got it and do not seem to have spread to any other orchids or effect the plant. any help will be good, thanks

it is good that it did not spread. I believe your plant have a serious case of fungus infection. The leave is a goner , spray fungicides would help.

thanks DG, could you prescribe a perticular one? or a key name to look for? thanks

Azza,

There are different brands usually in different countries, try Bunnings and Mitre 10, they both have the stuff you are looking for - I think Mancozeb would be worth trying.

this one i can't help. as there is many many brands. This one you need systemic fungicides most nursery should sell them.
