Is my King of Taiwan Cattleya burning?
Hey there! I got this phenomenal orchid about a month ago--King of Taiwan. The leaves were dark green and I progressively started giving her more sun light, but have I gone too far??? Thanks!

I'll say that it looks about right. Try keeping it at that exposure but no more. If you want it to get darker again just move it back to more shade but the light green is perfect.

South Miami. I don't belong to any societies....yet. My orchid obsession started two years ago, so I'm a newbie.

The leaves are fine. If it were burning they would be a definite red colour. My KOW has two growths each having a sheath so.....the waiting!!!!  lol |

you can't see it from the angle of the photo, but I have two new growths as well, one with a sheath!!! The wait is torturous!
