Chysis limminghei Arrived In Terrible Shape Male
Default Chysis limminghei Arrived In Terrible Shape

I received the Chysis limminghei in a shipment of two plants. The other plant, miniture Phal, was fine, moist medium and healthy but the Chysis limminghei was totally wilted and the medium totally dry. The plant consists of an old bulb with two leaves and new growth with several long leaves.
I immediately gave it water and have misted it several times this afternoon. It looks a bit better now but the leaves are quite wrinkled and the two leaves on the old bulb are damaged (torn) where they emerge from the bulb.
I plan on misting the plant several times tomorrow but was wondering if there anything else to do right now besides crossing fingers? Keep it out of filtered light for now? Cut off the damaged leaves from the old bulb, or give them a chance?
Was quite surprised on how thin the leaves are on this plant even though I had read up on it and it's care.
I did contact the seller and told him about the condition I received the plant in.
Thanks.
