Hi tedro, your phal is doing just fine. Lows around 65° won't harm your plant, but it's generally best for the phal be a bit warmer. Regarding your concern about the shininess of the leaves, new leaves tend to be a bit shinier/waxy-looking, and as they mature, they will become the "matte" color you were referring to. The pigmentation at the tips of the leaves are absolutely normal and simply a response to light – don't worry about that. You also most likely don't need to worry about the yellowing leaf. Phals slowly drop leaves as they age – unless you notice several leaves yellowing and dropping in rapid succession, it's likely not an issue. Just wait for it to drop naturally.

From the close-ups, it does seem like the plant could use a bit more water, though. The bottom leaf's senescing may have been a response to lower levels of water, but it was old anyways; don't worry. Seeing as you have a bark mix, which drains well, it will be fine (and probably beneficial) to water a bit more frequently. Overall, though, it's thriving. :)

According to the 'database', neo is reported as being the last person that posted within the thread here (apart from me that is).

Correct. Hit that bug where the latest post (first on a new page) doesn't show up until there is another post. Yours made neophyte's post visible.

Thanks Roberta!

thanks, neophyte! :bowing

So, neophyte, all, :bowing

Here’s another pic.
If you notice the root under the leaves on the left side, there was a leaf under where that is, it turned yellow and i removed it, a number of weeks ago. —and i put cinnamon on where i took/pulled it off, with a wet finger. :shock::blushing::D

Is it more likely than not, that the leaf on the lower *right side is following, then it will stop? be completed in that entire cycle, having already begun the next?. :rofl:
sounds good to me! :bowing:blushing: :D

Stay safe!
