I talked myself out of this one many times. Click to expand... thx all. Maybe not rotted but dried: it looks the same, brown/black. You have to put a lot of sphagnum in the leaves just like that: the roots will fill the sphagnum. warm, wet, ventilated and it grows very fast (sometimes 2 leaves a year!)
