In one of the chid shots I could swear that there is a little nub in one of those leaves.

Question More Pics
Roots, Roots, and More Roots.

The phal is also doing this peculiar lean. I think that it could just be from the way the roots are situated. I placed the plant in such a way to promote growing away from the lean and towards the light.

Good, bad, or needs a stake?

I don't think its a problem to have it lean, I grow mine on mounts and the grow almost sideways. Which helps keep water out of the crown.

Looks pretty darn good to me. These guys are going to lean a bit no matter what you do, so I'd let it. Love your broms too.
