Should I be concerned?

[CathyG]

I have a large specimen Oncidium maculatum that is in bloom. I have noticed a few areas of clear sticky fluid on both the leaves and the flower spike. They look like drops of clinging water but are very sticky when touched/removed. I see no bugs of any kind on the plant, but have removed it to another location until I figure out what is going on and what to do about it. Any help/ideas appreciated.

Thanks,

Cathy

Sap Its been a popular question recently! I asked the same question Here's the thread I started (there are lots of others though on the same question). It may help you out. But yes it's sap and it shouldn't be a cause for concern.

Has anyone ever heard of this?
