My new phal! Should I cut this spike? Female
Talking My new phal! Should I cut this spike?

I finally got the new phal that my husband rescued from the dumpster. I was shocked to see what good condition it is in! It was obviously taken care of...it even looks like someone trimmed the stem. But I guess they gave up and threw it out. Now it's mine, hooray! It looks wonderful. The new root growth looks excellent. From what I can tell, they are the healthiest looking roots I have ever seen.







Do you recommend I cut the spike, or should I leave it as is? Also, what is the little branch coming out of the spike near the top? I am guessing it's just another stem branching off, but it's so twisted, I'm not sure.

What do you recommend I do?
Thanks!
