Question
I have a little Phrag. Hanne Popow orchid at my desk at work. A week ago a window broke over the weekend and exposed the orchid to tempuratures below 30 degrees, (I live in Minnesota). Now the leaves are all turning brown and wilting. Is there anything I can do to save it??

Answer
Hello Alaina,

I'm afraid I've only got bad news to offer you.  Phragmepediums do not mind cool temperatures but totally dislike anything below 45F.  

Sorry!  Hope you had a Merry Christmas in spite of this tragedy.
