| "If" you have crown rot there will be no little leaf coming out the top. As long as you genuinely have a leaf coming there is hope. If you are serious about still trying to save the plant I would remove the flower spike - the plant needs to concentrate on rebuilding itself. In truth, a plant in the condition you describe will take several YEARS at best to creep back to a condition of vitality. As inexpensive as phals are my personal recommendation is to try another plant and this time walk through its care with us throughout - before you get to a point of despair. They are not that difficult once you get the hang of it - and will bring you lots of enjoyment. |
