My order from Les Jardins Osiris arrived a few days ago.

Roots are fresh and neatly packed with moist spagnum moss. I put in my order in July, don't hear back or get any confirmation from them at all. Last week, they charge my credit card and I received the root package a few days later (no tracking number was communicated). So in short, no communication and they will send you your order with whatever they have left at shipping time. (For me, they ran out of Vivid Rose so they just don't charge for it).

Overall, I will order again in the future as the roots have many eyes and hopefully those feeder roots will survive and give my plants a greate start next year. Also got a Cytherea but too excited to plant and forget to take a picture of it.

Serene Pastel:
Nice little root with maybe 7-8 eyes.

Bartzella:
Much bigger than the other roots in this batch, maybe due to it being itoh. Not seeing as many eyes as the other but should not be a problem.

Myrtle Gentry:

Pink Parfait:
A bit on the short side but with plenty of eyes.

Cytherea - don't have picture but the root must have more than 10 eyes, also on the short side root mass wise. I observed it and got carried away with finding a good position to lay it in the flower bed so forget to take a picture of it.

More to come and I can't wait to see what your 2023 roots look like.
