I purchased 2 nutmeg trees. They are about 2 feet tall. They took 9 days to reach me. The roots can wrapped in moist SPHAGNUM moss, no soil. Most of the leaves had been cut in half and they were green. The instructions were to place them in 4 inch pots filled with PEAT moss, not to water, place the whole thing in a plastic bag with a cup of water on the side to create a humid condition with 7 holes for breathing and keep them indoors.

One week later the leaves were brown the trunk still had life so I wrote to the shipper the condition of the plants. They instructed me to water with vit. B but keep the plants in the baggy. Two weeks later one tree is dead. The leave have fallen from the second tree and they are bought still in the house. I REALLLLLYYYYY want the plant to thrive. Is there any suggestions?
