    Okay, this is a strange question, but does anyone own a cattleya that naturally curls it's leaves backward? I got an unknown cattleya plant years ago that seems to curl it's leaves backward when they mature. Whenever I try to up the watering schedule (wanting the leaves to uncurl) I get fungus... here's a healthy picture of the plant...I just cut out black spot fungus and it doesn't look so good now. Notice how the leaves curl backward?

    Here's the picture.
