Good for you... Happy it worked out. But what do you mean by "European shipment standards"? Floralia should have sent you the tracking number right away. But would you have been willing to pay more for a private carrier?
Anyway my green card had been lost while sent from Vermont to New York. I received after a month when usually takes 3 days. It had been sent to my PO Box when Official Documents are not suposed to be delivered to a PO Box. If I had not received I would have had to pay 300$ for a replacement.
I did a trade this winter and the Den laevifolium was stuck in New Jersey for 5 days and I received it frozen and the person I did the trade received my Pinguiculas frozen. Usually it would take 3 days and never received a frozen plant but some town in NJ must have kept packages outside or somewhere unheated.
Stuff happen.
I would file a complaint for the post office. If you have a tracking # you can possibly see where was the bottleneck, where the package got stuck. Filing a complaint will help stuff like this happen less frequently.
All is well what ends well, maybe the neglect will make your orchids bloom more profusely!
