Thank you, Ray. I suspected that it wasn't something to worry about, but I
thought I would ask just in case -- since it is soooo red.

Not a phal, but the most beautiful leaves I've ever seen are on Pot.
Thubtim Thai - brilliant purple/red. And perfectly healthy... Of
course that was in high light conditions, and now that I've moved them
to my substantially more shady tent city they have faded back to green.
When I get the greenhouse up I'm moving them back into high light, and
I'll grow them just for color. Don't care what the flowers look like.

I haven't seen them bloom, but out of about 50 plants, all had intensely
purple foliage. There should be a special AOS award for foliage...
