Hi everyone,
Interesting situation. My grandfather, who has dementia, was gifted a Phalaenopsis orchid by my aunt.
Yesterday, I found the orchid outside on top of a garbage can. We've been having freezing temperatures at night, so I knew this would kill the plant. I decided to bring it inside to my area of the house and attempt to save it.
The strange thing is, the orchid looks healthy. I don't know why he decided to put it outside on top of a garbage can. I'm pretty sure it's a dementia thing.
Anyway, like I said, before, we've had freezing temperatures at night. I want to make sure this orchid is healthy. Here are pictures.
I think there is some slight frost damage on the flowers, but other than that, I'm not certain if the plant is healthy or not. Could someone please help me out with this?
