I just received an Ecuagenera order. It left Florida March 11 via UPS and arrived here today while I was home. Most of the plants appear to be in very good shape.
I ordered three Masdevallias:
PRH9754 Masdevallia Denis Roessiger x Masd. Falcata;
PRH6391 Masdevallia Susy de Bermeo and
PRH9190 Masdevallia Sol del Medio Dia.
The first two look fine. When I picked up the third package all the leaves fell out of the bag.
It still has two leaves attached firmly. I already have a message out to Ecuagenera. I am a beginner with Masdevallias. A Masdie that arrived bare-root in November is doing well in my sunroom. My first instinct is to treat all three of these like the previous one: Soak in Kelpmax and Inocucor with a little sugar, pot in sphagnum in a clay pot, and put in a cool shady spot in my sunroom.
I would put this one inside a large jar for extra humidity. Does this seem reasonable?
What do do with almost leafless on arrival Masdevallia
