Phals need YOUR help! VOTE!
Currently, on PATSP's (Plants are the Strangest People) houseplant poll round 5.2, Phals are embroiled in a vicious struggle against heavy weight Schlumbergera (holiday/Thanksgiving/Christmas cactus)! Currently our beloved Phals are losing!  They need your votes folks! Pop on over to PATSP and give them a helping vote!

As I said on another thread the choice was difficult for me as well, although I did go for phals. I have 20 phals and only 2 Christmas cactus so while I love both the phals had to get my vote.
