Now it is in the orchid tank with quite bright light and pretty moist air. New leaf just started and I am wondering if it will come out long and narrow too.
Also I am hoping that it will activate the spike and bloom sometime soon...

Phal. violacea var. alba
Violacea alba was producing long and narrow leaves. I think it was an issue with cultivation, either not enough light or moisture or something else maybe...

Is this a problem? At least one of my phals looks like this, and I never thought much of it.
ReplyDeleteYes, I think I read somewhere that if new leaf grows narrower and longer than all the previous leaves - it means not enough light. I think that if all the old leaves were narrow too - it is fine, but in my case new leaf on the right is way longer and narrower than the previous on the left.
DeleteLet's see how the newest will come out.
