I received 7 if these plants.

One does not have any new growth. I'm going to soak that one too get the bulbs plump and then wait and see.

The others have here growth but not much in roots yet. Should I water and get the bulbs plump as well and then let them be?

The other 4

I don't know what to say other than BUMP.



I've tried resuscitating plants like that by withholding water and by watering, but haven't been very successful. The one with the longest roots I would definitely water. The others I would put in a warm, humid spot but not water yet. I could be wrong.

[mook1178]

With these I unpotted them as none of the growths have roots that are growing anyway.

I ended up with many bulbs that were rootless and a bit shrivelled, but otherwise healthy. I'm going to soak them overnight to try and plump them up since they don't have roots. Then set them aside and see what happens.

The bulbs with new growth but not roots are sitting in water to try and plump them up and maybe the new growth will push new roots.

If you water them, I'd kick 'em outside so its hot. Should help speed things up and get them growing faster.

Yup. Put them outside in the shade for the warmth and humidity. Most new growth are so small that I don't want to burn them with direct light
