Hello all,
I have a little problem with a Phragmipedium of mine... When it arrived from Belgium (I live in Greece) it was kind of stressed and had few and little to middle sized roots and three growths in total!!! One of the growths went brown and really hard (it is gone now... although, something green seems to pop up from the bottom and inside part of it...) and most of the roots started to die (many of them are trimed off by me as they were soft and wet) I kind of loosely rapped the remaining root system (several little roots..) with coconut chunks and repotted it in a small pot with clay marbles mix... so as to give more moist to the roots! Shouldn't I do that? Should I do something else (put it in a transparent bag and rap it)? I don't have any sphagnum moss or something... Any suggestions?
Help needed immediately...
Thank you, Thanasis...
