Is it possible for these Phals to develop from the base of the plant,

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.

As I suspected it looks like the original crown has been damaged (water on
it over night?) so it's just growing a new one.
