I have had an orchid for ten years and it has never failed to flower twice a year. This year it has malformed leaves and no shoot coming through. Is it the end for my lovely flower or is there something I can do? I'm drip feeding it but so far no difference.

Is that the Elections for those that are supposedly 'un-elected'?!?

Possible mealybugs. An excellent visual reference here

Thanks. I've checked for bugs and it's clean. Have linked to the website Izzbella which is very helpful. Thank you.
