Hi black_thumb, like Judi says on the same web page there is a link to instructions on how to repot a phal.

I personally keep mine in a bark/leca mixture with a bed of lightly packed sphag near the top. They seem to appreciate it.

With phals you should try to fertilize them "weekly, weakly" that is a bit of food (1/2 or 1/4 strength) every watering with a good fresh water flush once a month to prevent salt build up.

As far as lighting go, they like indirect sunlight, if exposed to direct light the leaves will burn easily.

Other than that they are truly forgiving plants!



Hope this helps!
