Phalaenopsis w/no leaves?
Default Phalaenopsis w/no leaves?

Left some plants out too long in the yard and the cold "melted" the leaves. Roots are still healthy. I assume that I just keep watering them over the winter and leaves will come in the spring?

On one plant in the above situation, there are two spikes, remaining from last year's bloom. Now I notice that new reddish growth is growing off from those stalks. Looks like the beginning of new flower stalks, though all my other phals, when growing a spike either from the base or out of an older spike, have had a spike.

I am thinking that I should maybe cut these spikes back to the base of the plant to encourage it to put its "energy" into better root growth and leaf growth rather than trying to flower?
