Hi, what window do you have it in? Facing what direction? How bout
temperature fluctuations in your kitchen like when you cook. I keep
mine in an east window with a fan going and they're doing great. Tell
us how your taking care of your plant and we'll do the rest .....newbie
here also......do a google search on Phal. care and good luck....Burr

I have it in a bright northeast window. Temperature in the 60-70 range.
Its still spring here in NYC. I have it next to another phala plant
that I had purchased a couple of weeks ago, and that one seems normal to
me. I'm treating it the same way. The new plant blooms stems are
drooping, which in turn does not make the blooms exposed as they should.
I have it on a pebble saucer for humidity purposes. Watered it
thoroughly the first time. The other one never had to use a fan so
far...and its doing great. I even fertilized once. wait till summer here
for fan use.
