Default Am I killing my phalaenopsis???

My guess is that it's got sunburnt. I suggest moving it away from
direct sun and it should be fine. Don't know what state you are living
in, but imagine giving it the same shade it would get under a big
eucalyptus tree, with no direct sun whatsoever. Hope this helps.

Hi all,
My name is Isabel and I am new to the news group...

I have a few phalaenopsis and some of the leafs have started to turn an odd
colure. I have had one before that went a purpley colure and I was told that
is ok... but now two of my plants are getting a brown or black over the
leafs. Is this a good thing??? Am I killing them??

I have them inside on a windowsill where they get afternoon sun... is it too
much for them? Should I have some shade cloth over the window?? I live in
Australia so the sun can get hot down here??

I hope someone out there can help me
Thanks
Isabel
