#1: Phalaenopsis over-heated
Posted on 2005-08-18 17:21:36 by geoff.oxholm
I took my phalaenopsis orchid to get it replanted after another errand
yesterday. I left it in my car while I went in (for about an hour). I
then went and got it re-planted. When I brought it home I noticed that
the leaves had dark green sections on them and were slightly limp. I
figured that spending time in my hot car was what hurt them. I hoped it
would heal over night, but it did not. I'm afraid I have really damaged
the plant because today the areas are browning slightly.
Two pictures can be found at the following urls

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
