One month ago I bought this Dendrobium nobile. It has been in the outside of the house. Weather here in Mexico has been cold (about 14° C in the day and 6° C in the night), also it's been raining. The exception was last week in which there was a heater weather.
About a week ago I noticed some black spots in the base of the leaves of the Dendrobium. I have no idea why.
It has been in a place with shadow, but I read that Dendrobiums need some Sun during Winter, that's the reason why I changed the place to a one with better sunlight, but not really direct sunlight. It is behing a rose plant.
If some of you know the reason of the spots and what to do, let me know.

Update (011514):
Sonya asked me if the canes are firm where the dark patches are, and that's true.
At the time I went to confirm this, I noticed that a leave has a white spot and that there is a new cane growing but with a very white color.
I think that the white spot is because of a sunburn, right?
Is the color of the new growth normal?
