Ross, thats the exact same thing that happened to mine. When I first got it, I tried growing it in the open, and it lost its leaves like a bald man looses the hair on his head. It was scary! It took a year for it to recover. THis is a good terrarium orchid cause its the only place I can put it in where its happy as opposed to dieing.
