Dying phal!
 
Hello!

A few weeks ago, I rescued a phal at my local grocery store. It was almost
dead, leaves ( 2 ) were very soft and wrinkly!

I paid 5.00 for it and decided to give it a chance. When I came home, I took
a look at the roots and they were looking quite healthy.
So, usual care for it until one of the leaf start to turn brown from the
tip to the base. It was brownish and yellowish color. I decided to cut off
that leaf but now, I`m down to one leaf only!

What should I do?

Claude

Nothing. Keep it out of direct sun and keep the mix moist. Then wait a
while and see what happens. Give it plenty of time.
