Just got this Epidendrum from a reputable nursery today. All the plants in the nusery have these white spots on leaves so I thought they are normal. However none of other healthy Epidendrum's online photos show white spots.
The label just says Epidendrum species. No additional information.
Are the white dots problematic?

Can they be wiped off? Are they raised or smooth?

I had several plants wind up like that when the railings on our deck were spray painted.

Thank you Ray. They are flat not raised. I did learn since posting that they are marks of hail damage. Apparently the rare storm we had this winter impacted all outdoors plants including those at the nursery. My hope is that they don't damage the orchid's long term health.

Orchids are tough... I suspect that damage is just cosmetic.
