colm wildcat, to cut or not to cut?
 
Hi again!

So its been a couple of months since i got my colm wildcat orchid, and its still alive, thats really good for me i think!! The question i have now is about the spikes that are loosing/have lost their flkowers. My plant is quite large, so i have 5 spikes that are just loosing their flowers now, some are bare already. There are also 2 brand new spikes that have just sprouted in the last 2 weeks. What should I do with the bare spikes? should I cut them down? should i leave the new spikes to bloom over december?

Thanks!

The spikes that have finished blooming - yes, you can cut them, they won't rebloom

Definitely leave the new ones tho! If they just started, it will probably be 2-3 months before they bloom
