Updated: 2012-02-06 00:26:36I have a Laelio Cat (Emperor Wade) which has not flowered yet.
About 1 month ago it started 3 new growths. I was spraying daily since I did not want the low humidity dry ou the growth.
Suddenly 1 of the growths turned brown and then black. The other 2 seem to have stopped their growth although have not turned black.
Was it the watering? Can anybody please help?Identification: February 4th Vancouver flower
