I see that this plant is planted in sphag. If they are all in sphag BE VERY CAREFUL how much you water. The number one problem with phals with newbie growers is usually overwatering - that rots the roots - and sphag is the most notorious of medias for causing this problem because it retains a lot of moisture. You need warm conditions and lots of good air movement - typical of what you would find in a greenhouse. Let us know how your communication with Normans goes - will be interesting.
