when to cut broken/yellowing leaf
Default when to cut broken/yellowing leaf

Hello,

I have a phal that has one lower leaf that is 1/3 broken or ripped at the base (I'm guessing when I repotted I wasn't careful enough). The section of the leaf below the break is yellowing & wrinkling. Do you think I should cut the leaf off completely, partially, or just let it be?

To give some background on the orchid, I bought it in bloom from the grocery store, and it was planted in moss. After blooming & cutting the spike, we noticed the leaves were really floppy. On some advice, we repotted it in bark, and all but about 2-3 roots were rotten and cut off. The leaves are getting stiffer now and it looks healthier in the bark now.

Thanks for any advice!
