Brassia? Help with saving the poor thing
Default Brassia? Help with saving the poor thing

I recently rescued this orchid from a friend of mine who clearly took really good care of her poor orchid. It was bare root when I took it home. I potted it in a mix of charcoal, sponge rock and coconut husk pieces. I assume all I can do is wait and see if it lives or dies... Any suggestions on helping it out. I'm afraid to put it outside, I live in Florida, but I know these types of orchids tend to do better in the warm humidity.

it looks like a little new growth is starting. So there is hope. Patience will be needed. Recovery will take a while. The wrinkled pblubs will stay that way. The objective is for new growth to be plumb and healthy.

Good Luck!
