This Phal I *saved* from a local chain store. It had sever root rot and as you can see the flower is a bit deformed. But, I took good care of it, it bloomed and the other buds are now starting to open.
Lucan, nice phal! Thanks for posting a pic for us all to see!

I really and truly have no hard feelings. I purchased it on clearance at Target for $4.95 and it flowered for something crazy like 7 months. I couldn't even but a cut stem for that cheap.
