Now what, do we need to get health care plans for the orchids as well?


It's going to be really interesting to see what the plant does with this thing! If it's still really undecided, maybe it will decide to grow a terminal spike from the keiki!

Thank you all for your answers, I´ll keep you updated.

I think your phal is unhappy, you should send it to me. You do not want a neurotic phal.

My other Phals are quite happy, so I don´t think this is the case, it´s just indecisive.
If you want it, you can make me an offer

I promised to keep you updated on my weird Phal.
A few days ago I discovered something between the leaves

My money is on a flower spike arising from a keiki.....very neat stuff

Looks to me it started to produce a terminal spike and decided to be a kei-kei instead and is now big enough to produce a spike. However, I'm no expert, but I've had a couple phals do some weird stuff. It seems they have a strong will to survive - especially if they get a lot of TLC as it appears you are giving yours!

I'm sure you don't want that mitten shaped growth
Strange what it is doing but obviously it's happy!
