Is it possible for these Phals to develop from the base of the plant,
right beside the already established leaves which have sprouted,

for all I know, it could just be new leaves. It seems to be sending out
new roots, too. What do I do now?!





I've never known it happen, Sacha. Could you post a photograph, Please?


Sorry Spider, I forgot all about this photo. You can see the new young
leaves coming through, though one looks as if it's been chomped
already. I can't get a shot of the roots but it does look like a
separate plant.
