Cattleya HELP!
Hi there,
I am an orchid newbie. I bought a cattleya off of ebay. It was sent via Expresspost, made it here in 3 days. The only problem is my brain-dead postal deliverer decided NOT to read the label on the front of the parcel stating: "Live plant enclosed do not expose to Sun, cold or heat" and left my precious plant in my supermail box for me to pick up at the end of the day. Needless to say I was quite upset but that is a whole different story.... my problem is... it was exposed to cold for at least 3 hours. The leaves went dark and mushy then dropped off.
Can my baby be saved??? Is there anything I can do to salvage it!
Please help!
Thank you,
Dawna
