Thelymitra nuda, commonly known as the plain sun orchid [2] is a species of orchid that is endemic to eastern Australia. It has a single fleshy, channelled leaf and up to twelve dark blue to purplish, sometimes white or pinkish flowers with white tufts on top of the anther. It grows in a range of habitats and sometimes forms large colonies.
Orchids naturally shed old foliage. If the bottom leaves on a monopodial orchid turn yellow, the plant is probably just getting ready to drop them because the leaves are at the end of their life span.
Every time you take your orchid to the sink to water it, Kondrat recommends inspecting the plant for signs of mealybugs. They look like white fluff on the underside of leaves.
