Crispy Cattleya?
I rescued a Ric Achung Ruby from Lowe's, repotted it, and put it in one of the brighter sections of the greenhouse, thinking it could handle the sun. It has a western exposure, but we put a sun shade over the top of the greenhouse because until a few days ago, it was still pretty warm here. Last night temps dropped to 46...even in the greenhouse. This afternoon, while checking my plant babies, I noticed one leaf has a couple of dark purple blotches. Shall I guess it was from the sun, or is it more likely from the cold? This is a new greenhouse and we have been struggling trying to keep the temps low...and now we are forced into coming up with some heat. (We are trying old fashioned red Christmas lights tonight in the hopes they nudge the temp up to the 50s.)
