I'm so upset I broke it
 

While watering, didn't realize Kitchen cabinet was way close to the stem. Stem was HUGE LONG, and took 7 buds & flowers off. I heard the click when it broke and I got so upset cuz there's no way to save it. :( Darn !

Aw! I am so sorry! It looks like you will still get some pretty blooms, at least.... :(

I know how you feel. I've done it, too. Though it is very frustrating, it is well worth remembering that it will bloom again. Phals sometimes even send up another spike or bud from the broken spike just to compensate for the ones broken. The important thing to do, however, is to console yourself by buying another orchid, either in bud or bloom.

My condolences to you.

Not letting me delete my comment so I'll replace it with this one.

aw dang! I am so sorry! I know that sinking feeling...they will last in water for some time tho, and you can enjoy them like that...

Oh yes leaf mite. It's the only way.

This is the solution to many of life's problems. :)

LOL thanks I needed that :) I'm so ready to get a new one, I'm so due.. LOL
