Evening, everyone!
I bought a Bllra. Marfitch 'Howard's Dream' last week, and I have noticed it has gone sort of....um.....floppy? on me..
I don't know if it's due to the fact that it is now in my house instead of in the store, that maybe my cats bumped it when I had it in a different window, that it was (until about half an hour ago) on the edge of the bookshelf closest to the a/c vent and maybe that was too cold? Did it get too hot? It has been in the 90s all weekend and is supposed to be 95+ all week...but it is in front of the window, the shades are down, and the a/c is on...so...why did this happen?
Or is it just that these leaves are quite tall and kind of thin to begin with? Does it look bad? Should I be worried? Is there anything I can do to increase rigidity in these leaves?
As you can see in the third picture, I moved it to the other side of the bookshelf and am using the wall/nextdoor bookshelf to support the leaves. I am hoping that works out a little bit better. The fourth picture is of when I first got it...so you can see it looks a little more floppy than it used to.
Sorry to ask so many questions...^^; I have never had an orchid like this before, so I want to be sure I'm doing it right. Or at least genuinely trying.
Is this normal?
