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

That Phal. looks like it needs repotting to me. Perfect time to do it too. :)

I agree, that could be a spike growing!

Hmm...The shop owner said that it had just finished flowering sooo...might as well repot with some new mix. I think that I am going to use the same pot...well I dont have anything else to use...hehehe...

Roots, Roots, and More Roots.:biggrin:

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.
