The phals don't have a rest period. After flowering, it will be gathering its energy for putting out new roots and leaves. No special treatment or care is required. Just care for it as you have been: medium bright indirect sunlight, high humidity and weekly watering as usual.

DDS - if you haven't repotted your Phals and the media is breaking down, now would be a great time to do it.
