    Default Neglected Phalaenopsis

    Hello. Just recently Oct. 23, 2014. as I was in a temple, I saw three pots of Neglected phalaenopsis. They were put into a corner, because they have finished their bloom. But I saw their ROOTS are all in proper condition.

    And I was tempted to bring it back home, to try to save them. So I asked the Caretaker of the Temple, if its ok to let me have those Phalaenopsis, so I can take care of them. He Obliged, and even provided me a plastic bag for me to bring it home.

    here are some of the pictures, I hope I can save them. Good luck to me.


    The First Picture:
    As you can see it already lost all of its leaves, but I saw a basal keiki, so I think it can survive with proper TLC.

    The Second Picture:
    The topmost leaf has Rot I cut it out and just the other day I sprinkled it with some Cinnamon powder.

    The Third Picture:
    as you can see, the Condition of the leaves are not very good. but I saw new roots trying to shoot out.
