posting for Unclelar...sent to admin by mistake
-----------------------------------------------

Hi everyone, Please help. I recently bought two lovely Phals. The blooms were as
flat as I have seen. Now they are bent back to the point that they don't look
right. Did I do something to cause this to happen? If so, is there anything I
can do to help them? Thanks, Unclelar

Hi and welcome. I think you are going to have to be more specific, and a picture would be helpful. If you need help posting feel free to pm me. I would be happy to help and that way Fred can get back to tending us wayward children.

If it is what I think it is (which it may not be - a pic wold help) it's just somethign that some Phal flowers (especially the larger flowered ones) do sometimes. It could also be that they are starting to fade (also natural as flowers fade and drop). Can't say for certian without more info but probably nothing to worry about.
