New buds on tip of blooming spike? Female
Default New buds on tip of blooming spike?

This phal has been in bloom for several months. Now i notice this forming at end of spike. Is it possible to form new buds at tip of full bloom spike? Could it be a keike? After flowers fall how to treat this? Hope my pic posting shows up

Yes, many Phals can continue to bloom from the same spike for a long time

I noticed the same thing on mine just a day or so ago...I've been told not to cut a spike until it turns brown...if it's green, let it be...so I thought I was on the last blooms on this rescue, but nooooo...YAY,
