Yes! Oncidium "Sharry Baby" is OK!

[FL_Orchid_Collector]

So I got this around a month ago from Hausermann's and, no fault of theirs, it got stuck in Memphis for two days! I was worried about two days in the Memphis spring heat (thanks climate change), and when the package arrived it was soaked in thawed seafood juice. Whoever got the seafood must have had a worse month than me. So a Phal. Mituo King bellina (I don't quite get that name, I've posted about it and haven't looked at replies yet, oops) and Onc. Sharry Baby had some of the newspaper wet and stanky (stinky x3), but the juice didn't reach either the leaves or the pots.

I mounted the plants and touched the center leaf on the largest growth and it leaned to one side. Hmm. I nudged it and it fell out, with brown slime on the ragged edge. I sent a message through Hausermann's site and they never responded. I've been worried about crown rot, but now, well, the base of that leaf has grown out and the rot didn't spread! It'll be an ugly leaf, but a leaf nonetheless!
