This Phal had horrible root damage. When I brought it home, it was packed very tightly in water-logged moss. I decided to re-pot it and upon taking it out of the moss I noticed that most of the roots were yellow and all tangled together. I tried to gently untangle them after I had carefully removed the moss and the yellowed roots began to fall into my hands. Completely rotted away. All said and done it had about 3-4 healthy green roots left. I've been checking the moisture of the bark daily and watering appropriately for a plant with so few roots. I'm assuming it's just very stressed from the re-potting and the significant root damage.
