Oh, don't shut up! Questions are wonderful. How would you know that many Phals grow exactly this way if you didn't ask?

Greenpassion, I'm very glad you did ask, because I would have been wondering about growth like that, too, especially in your third picture, where the small new leaf appears to be smooth, with no creases, and coming up at a right angle to the other leaves. I've had a couple new leaves on phals just recently, but they've always been creased in the middle, even when very tiny.

So I'm glad you asked and got replies from a few of our more experienced growers, because I learned something, too!

Well no surprise! You guys were right. I went out of town for 2 days, and low and behold- when I got back, they were both opened, looking like normal leaves!!😊😊
