Default problems with dragons breath....

wednesday i ordered some dragons breath online, it wasnt supposed to arrive until today but came yesterday around noon. well i was not prepared for a package arriving early as the first estimated arrival day was today and was at work all day yesterday, when i got home the package had been sitting in the driveway in the sun for over 5 hours, the water was extremely warm, my guess would be closing in on 100F.

the water was fluorescent pink by then, i swear if i new how to make a highlight i could have used it as ink,lol.

the plant had expelled almost all of its red pigments and had began expelling its fluorescent orange pigments.

here is a pic...






as you can see it still has green pigments (chloroplasts) so i would hope it still has enough photosynthetic machinery to survive, but i am unsure of myself on this one.

so do you think it will recover?
