The Prepodesma orpenii has finally managed the two stages of settling in. The leaves are firm and wrinkle-less, showing some fresh green at the base, and there are new leaves coming beside one of the flowers (the plant ten days ago). Also I was suspiciously eyeing the dots on the leaves but they only seem to be on the parts visible back when I bought it and probably come from spraying with chemicals and such. They should go away with the old leaves.
The flowers stayed for a while but almost never opened again. Yesterday the half-closed flowers were the most beautiful, looking like flames (make sure to view the pic in full size). They've dried only a couple of hours after the photo was taken.
