New Flower Stem?

[azrlg]

I re-potted my Orchid a few months ago. I have been nervous about whether it would make it through the transplant as my last one didn't go well. I had a lot of guidance from a woman in the garden center when I was getting the orchid potting chips and pot. Today I noticed that there is a new leaf starting to grow! YEAH! It also looks like a new flower stem may be growing??? Should I do anything else other than get a stake to attach the stem to?

I think that may be a root rather than a spike, but it will be much easier to tell soon as it grows out. If it is a spike it will be a while before you need a stake, but it can't hurt to be prepared. Nothing to do but continue normal good care, watch, and enjoy.

I vote root too.

Hey at least you got it through the re-potting and are rewarded with new growth whichever it be.
Good Luck with that!

Yup, you can relax and enjoy the progress, it's part of the fun!!

Yep root here as well. Don't give up yet most of my phals haven't started spiking this fall yet.
