sunburned phal :(

[ashley1222]

One of my mini phals was inadvertently left in direct sunlight on the porch Is this plant going to be able to keep those leaves? And how should I care for it now? Really don't want to lose this guy.

It should be able to keep those leaves. I personally normally don't do too much with sunburned leaves, but if for some reason you feel that the burn mark is spreading, or you don't like the look of it, you can always sterilize a razor blade and cut the affected part out. I would just put it in a place that gives it enough light for what it needs to grow (east windows are great) and follow basic phal culture.

This has happened to my phals many times.
No real harm done to the plant, you'll just have to put up with those leaves until the phal sheds them.

I wouldn't do much. It should be able to keep the leaves. I have one that has a patch like that since May and the leaf is still going strong.

I just carried on caring for it as normal and didn't do anything special for the leaf.

The roots look good, some tlc and she should be fine :-)
