Well, I got the mini-flasks of my solid blue Phalaenopsis Violaceas. I ordered 3 at US$150 each. Katherine Norton from Orchidview kindly added a bonus flask which I think is a full sized one from the number of plants in it. I am so happy
The large flask is totally intact and the media is 95% intact. Maybe I can get away with not reflasking it immediately. The three mini-flasks are all messed up, but luckily no real damage in 2 of them. However, the last one is a ball of plants and agar and will have to be planted out for sure. No way to reflask them. They will live though and will look ok with some new growth.
All up, considering they came from the USA to Thailand, they have faired ok. I will take pics when I get them home.
