Yellow leaves on my Phal

[AThoele]

Hi, all! I recently received my first orchids as a wedding gift. We would really like these orchids to survive, but it doesn't look good right now. The leaves have begun to turn yellow and a couple have fallen off. One of the leaves that is turning yellow began with a large black spot on the leaf.

I recently repotted the orchids and most of the roots were mushy. There were only a few remaining roots that hadn't yet begun to rot. I removed the rotting roots, but I'm not sure if there is anything else I can do to nurse the orchids back to health and do my best to help them survive.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!<br><br>Post edited by: AThoele, at: 2009/06/15 23:12
