I'm in Louisville, KY, and it is hotter than blazes here right now! I thought every couple of weeks sounded off. I'm going to repot this afternoon. It has aphids on it now. I think I've calmed down the infestation, somewhat. It had some sort of decorative moss on it, and I think that may be where the aphids are coming from. I have the root ball of the plant soaking in Brookns miracle stuff, and I'm hoping that if there are any aphids hiding in the leaves/roots, this will do them in. I have seen a stray aphid or two, but I've been picking them off the plant as I see them. I'm really annoyed that a so-called "reputable" person would sell me a plant full of aphids, and then give me insufficient instruction on how to care for it. I called to see about getting a refund, and was told she doesn't give refunds on orchids. Guess whose place of business I will NOT be going back to when I need a fix.
