Bud crowding
I've seen this a bunch lately with all of the plants that are growing flower spikes or those that I have received in spike. The buds are all growing on the same trajectory and since the blooms are fairly large they battle each other to open.
I had a phal drop almost all the blooms because they were so crowded. Currently, I've got a catt that is starting to bloom but all the flowers are competing with each other.
Can anything be done or is it is what it is? A few other catts I got from Carmela's are in bud that are closely bunched, I'd like to give them the best opportunity to bloom to their potential!
