Hi all. I went to bed last night excited because my first phrag was about to have a second flower but when I looked this morning, the first flower was on the floor. It's a healthy looking flower. I hate to think that the new flower assassinated the old one but maybe this is just how phrags do?
Do you happen to have a cat?
1 like No. Budgies but they have no access.

0 likesPaph and Phrag flowers don’t last as long as phals. There’s a chance that it’s just part of its regular cycle. Otherwise, pets and/or blasting from cold breezes or hot vents would be my guess. If you don’t see any discoloration, distortion, or pests on the other flower, it’s probably nothing to be concerned about.
