Diana, the phal will be just fine, in fact so fine that the energy that it
was putting into the new growth will be redirected into a new and much
stronger growth!
Hang in there lady, and get back in the house

Look what I've done! I was repotting a Phal today, and Frank was
watching.
I mentioned that the new center leaf is very delicate at this stage.
Then -
I snapped it off. I can't believe I did it. Have never done this before.
It seems like such a rudimentary question, and I think I know the answer,
but I need reassurance. Please tell me that another leaf will grow
anyway?
Please?

As punishment, I am going to stand in the rain, which is currently
substantial, until my crown rots. Yeesh.
