Question on flower spikes Phal.
Default Question on flower spikes Phal.

Home Depot purchase a year ago. Had two flower spikes one I cut at the base and the other just above the 4th node. It’s grown a few new leaves and now has two new spikes coming from the base but the old flower spike seems to be doing something like a new bud from that 4th node. Just leave things as is or should I remove the remaining old spike? No experience but have been researching lots.

Welcome! Without a picture (5 posts first), I'd say leave as is. They will often spike above a cut node.

Okay coolio. Is it normal to have two new spikes and a new spike off an old one for a total of 3? Maybe it’s just beginners luck. Or the fact Cancún has a great climate.

I've had a couple do that. But I'm sure everybody does better in Cancun.
