Phal rebloom likelihood
Ok, I just ordered a sale phal from Hausermann, it's a lovely robust looking plant. However, it must have been used as stock for cut flowers, because the flowering stem cuts (2) were very fresh. At the price (6.99), I'm not unhappy at all..but I was curious.
I haven't grown a phal in like 20 yrs (being on the oncidium and dendrobium side now) and I wondered being as it's now September (mid even), is it likely that cool temps before winter will induce flowering again or am I likely to have no stalks till next year?
I know I know...this is crystal ball gazing, but opinions?
If it helps the cv is 'Ox Happy Girl'. There are 7 good looking leaves, the two stems are on the two oldest leaves.
Thank you for your opinions.
