We spent a pleasant afternoon gazing at the passing parade from our deck. Meanwhile out the back the orchids are suffering from something called Bud Blast. There is a list of possible issues. The buds are turning yellow and dropping off before they bloom and could be due to sudden temperature drops, bugs and even nearby fruit trees that give off ethylene gas. There are seven spikes that are dying off this way and another eight that seem ok. I don't think we have done anything different to previous years so hopefully it is a one off problem for this Winter as it is the first time we have seen this.
