Hi everyone,

There are strange white lines on every leaves of my Phragmipedium Ainswothii and the bracts are deformed.

Do you have suggestions to this problem ?

Thank you !

I don't know but it also looks like the plant is dehydrated or sunburned. I could be wrong for sure.

I agree with the dehydration--so water it more--, but I don't think it is sunburn.

I wouldn't worry about it.

If you are really concerned about virus, the only way to know for certain is to send it off to a lab for testing.

I would have to agree with Teresa!

Whatever it is I hope it goes away. Good luck.
