New phal leaf looks 2 dimensional

3 years ago

One of my Phalaenopsis orchids has produced a new crown leaf that is growing at a good rate but hasn’t opened out like a normal leaf, making it look 2 dimensional. I’m attaching a photo of it, beside a photo of a normal new leaf on another phal. Is there something wrong with it? Do I need to do something?

I'm no expert on orchid diseases or ailments, but I do have an observation and a question.

Observation--Your plant on the right, and the new leaf on the plant on the left both have a decided red color. The two old leaves on the plant on the left appear green, as a Phal. should. Question--Have you made any radical changes to the culture of these two plants lately?
