Hi,
I am pretty experienced when it comes to orchids, as my family has grown them for years.
But I have a problem ... My dendrobium orchid, that ive had for about 4-6 months, has lost 2-3 leaves over that period, no new leaves have formed as it is still in bloom. Is it normal for this to happen. My 2 other orchids [phaleopensis] dont seem to do this.

Can some one please tell me if this is normal ?!?

Leaves will drop from old canes or if it gets a chill.
