Dendrobium stratiotes

The plant seems to have been well packed but it seems to have been severely stressed during shipping. About 90% of the leaves had turned yellow and fallen off the canes. Only the top 2 or three leaves at the tips of the canes survived. I gave the plant first aid and potted it. It appears to be stable. I’m pretty sure that it will survive.

When I picked up the plant at the Oregon Orchid Society's annual show in April, I failed to inspect the plant that I had pre-paid. Had I inspected it, I would have asked for a different plant or a REFUND. The plant started out with yellow leaves and black spots. To date, it has lost 3/4 of its leaves and the ones that are left continue to turn yellow and fall off. I am quite certain the plant will not survive. I am not new to orchids and I can assure you that this is not a "user" problem.

Plant arrived damaged and turning black. All leaves had fallen off. Poorly packaged for shipping. Asked for a refund.

most it's leaves fall off. i hope it will be okay.

The plant arrived in Florida, USA in good shape and very healthy. The leaves and root ball looked happy. It is a large plant which makes me happy. I can easily recommend Ecuagenera and the stratiotes.
