I'm pretty sure I have an aganisia cyanea(label said acacallis cyanea X self). I got it over the winter and it was doing the best out of all my orchids. New growth, roots, and plumping pseudo bulbs. Now all the sudden all leaves on the second youngest bulb turned yellow and brown. The temps have gotten higher but none of my other plants around it have shown any sign of heat stress and Ive changed nothing as far as watering/fertilizer goes. I cut the leaves off thinking they weren't capable of doing there job and now one of the older P bulb's leaves are doing the same thing. But the new growth dosent seem to be effected. I'm thinking it looks like too much heat/sun or over watering even though I havent changed watering routine.Any help would be great, thank you

That photo is of the older pseudo bulb's leaves starting to do whatever happened to the other one. It's not bad yet but if it continues on the same path they will be mostly yellow and some browning:/

1. It needs more light. This plant's not getting enough of it. My plant has lighter colored leaves than yours does.

2. Increase air circulation. I see black spots on it, and I believe it could use some air circulation.

3. Older leaves will drop. They are not evergreen.

thank you. I was toying with the idea to put it outside and in that case I will. It will be on my patio facing east with an overhang. I hope I can get it back on track, I'm more attached to this plant than any of my others for some reason. It was in an east facing window with a sheer curtain.
