I don't think this is insect related. Other than the haemanthus, which I raised from seed, it only affects three pots of amaryllis that I have, two of which are bulbs of color forms that I bought two years ago. They however have not been in close proximity to the pot of the more common pink ones. The haemanthus is less affected and I raised it from seed, but it's pot is next to one of the amaryllis pots. * *I did just locate a picture of necrotic spot virus on an oncidium orchid leaf at http://freshfromflorida.com/pi/enpp/… that looks a lot like what I am seeing on these amaryllis. There is a site that discusses this virus on a amaryllis but it is currently unavailable. Randy On Sun, Oct 30, 2011 at 1:24 PM, J.E. Shields <jshields@indy.net> wrote: > Possibly insect damage.
