As long as you are not at "terminal spike" I suppose you still have life in the orchid. I do not think they are very old when they get to Lowes. It does take a few years to get a spike from a plant coming back from a near-death experience like that. I would not count on anything this year or maybe even 2016. Orchids grow at an exceedingly slow rate. Getting a few leaves a year is usually considered impressive.

I have some how managed to kill 7 orchids already so I was trying to do anything I could to keep this one alive. I'm just happy she hasn't died on me. I'm in no rush to see her bloom again. I prefer her getting her root system in place as well as maturing her leaves properly.
Which leads me to my next question. Will the second leaf stop growing since a new one is sprouting?
