Does this orchid shed its leaves? I had the bottom leaf turn yellow and fall off and was wondering if this was normal? The root structure looks healthy and is growing.

Thanks for any help....Faz.

It's perfectly normal. My Phals shed at least one leaf a year. It's just part of the normal growth cycle.

Yep, I agree, it's normal...funny how our plants are more normal than we are...!!!

Thanks very much for the comeback. As you know all newcomers panic at the sight of something unusual and then promptly go ahead and create more havoc.

All the best....Faz.

No need to panic, Faz (though I do on a regular basis!)
