HELP....cattleya sunburn NEWBIE Female
Exclamation HELP....cattleya sunburn NEWBIE

I've had this cattleya since October of last year. When I got her she had plump pseudopods, a ton of healthy roots, and lush green leaves (refer to my previous post for details http://www.orchidboard.com/community...ssistance.html)... because of my ignorance, she's got no roots (hasn't had any for months) and her leaves are seriously dehydrated. I've implemented the "sphag in a bag" method in hopes that her leaves would re-hydrate and that it would stimulate some root growth.

I put her outside this morning in the sun like an IDIOT for about 30 min with the bag on her. I no idea that this would, in fact, be extremely harmful to her....she is now suffering major sunburn and I am seriously freaking out.

Please help me.... can the sunburn go away?
