I keep all my Phal (about 20) in medium bark and it has worked well for me. As long as the leaves are not dead and you still have some good roots you have a chance to save the plant. You also may want to try keeping it in a small pot in a large zip lock to keep the humidity up. Hope this helps. Good luck |
Are all the roots without velamen dead? They seem rather healthy naked roots.
I have a lot of them. It is just the velamen that are rotted out. The thing is if I mount it, will the roots dry out too fast, since it has nothing to protect it from cold or heat.
