Brassidium spikes are confusing me
 
A few months ago, I cut the spikes on my brasidium. However, the spikes now are still green. There was already a spike that had been cut when I received the orchid that was brown. Will anything happen to these spikes?

They should eventually turn brown. Unless there are some rare exceptions, these won't re-bloom like many Phals will. So cutting them makes for a more attractive plant. I guess there are exceptions when I think about it because Psycopsis does continue to slowly bloom repeatedly on the same spike. but most don't.
