Severe orchid freezing

11 years ago

Hi everyone,


My Valentine got me a phaleonopsis orchid, and in order to take it home, I had to make a 5 minute walk from his place to mine. However, the temperature was 12F and wind chill was -7. I brought it in the house and went about my business for about 15 minutes when I noticed that all of the flowers are now droopy like they're dying and about to drop off.


Will it perk up? How can I help the plant? I feel like watering it won't help...


Thanks in advance! I'd like this orchid to be beautiful for a long time!
