Phal schilleriana
While looking over my Phal schilleriana, I noticed something curious about one of the flowers. Well, unusual to me. On closer inspection, I found several flowers like this one and many more with a single lip...maybe not uncommon but thought somebody might like to see this....

Yes and no... If I'm having as problem with a plant and its roots, I will selectively use SuperThrive or Hormex.

Doc, you just gotta move the micro-wave out of the green house.
That's downright weird.

Love the word Dorothy. You know we would have all believed you knew what you were talking about if you had just stated that's what it was
It's a great mutant Doc.

Initially, I thought only the leaf pictured was affected, but there are several that look like this. Last year this wasn't the case. And this year I didn't have the large show of flowers I had last year.... must be something in the water
