    Your Phal actually looks good & healthy and the leafs are ok growing like that, nothing to worry about. Sometimes they just grow to big to fast and get a little over crowded in the crown. I also noticed a flower stem, is the plant in bud or blooming?

    I would like to see the Phal when it is blooming to see what color it is, has it bloomed before or will this be the first time blooming?

    Wow I love that color, you did a great job growing this beauty. You will enjoy this Phal for many years. I have one that is 9 years old now.

    This one was my frist. My mother gave it to me as a birthday gift. I stress over it a little more.

    Yes I understand a mothers gift is always more special, but I wouldn't stress to much because Phals are really hardy growers, the only way to kill them is by over watering!
