I'm happy, my new Neos (Fugaku and Yoroidoshi) have finally arrived! Poor plants have been through a lot, they were imported from Japan (Seed Engei) by someone in the UK, he nursed them 2 months, still barerooted, as they sat in customs for a long time, and now they spent a week in a box traveling to the Netherlands.
They look a bit dyhydrated, but the roots are very nice. So my question is, now what??
I've just put them in a bowl of water to soak (wish I had some Kelpmax...) and am going to pot them up later in net pots in a bark+sphag mix because I only have AAA NZ sphag, which doesn't work very well for wrapping around a sphag mound. I'm having a really hard time finding AAAA NZ sphag in Europe...
Should I be keeping them warm and trying to encourage new root growth at this point (there are a few nice growing tips on new roots), or start them directly on their winter 'rest'?
Need help with my recently imported, bareroot Neofinetia!
