Heya Ange. Iv'e done similar things to my weeds in the past and a
couple of winters ago I decided to clean and weed the greenhouse
as well as glue some orchids onto trees. Now it was winter as I
have just stated and I thought no worries when I left plants
outside in the open while sprucing and revamping the
greenhouse.. Ha ha ha not so and some nice Neps got sunburned
on the leaves on the top areas that curve in particular. Also
some orchids got sunburned too, let alone tender shade loving
palms and I may as well have been a little boy with a magnifying
glass and done some damage to leaves and ants or whatever as
well. Down under here in NZ the solar radiation is pretty
wicked (ozone or lack of it) so as a result one has to be very
careful when relocating plants even in winter so I learned the
hard way, but that is often the way we learn! Ric. Ps. get
some green paint and make your Pings colourful again. Seriously
they may regrow again so put them in a suitable location/
conditions for what species of Ping(s) you have.
