Thre is also a spike, that started under the leaf on the left:
I am really looking forward to see the flowers when/if it will decide to bloom.
I have this idea to collect all varieties of equestris, so far I have blue and orange. There is also alba that came gorgeous and healthy but lost all the roots under my care :( I am trying to save it, but it doesn't look promising enough to log it here yet.
Oooo, how cute! Yeah, the yellow leaf is probably just from old age. Congrats on the spike! There is a member from OB that is sending me one in the spring, so I am excited for that!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Spike doesn't seem to grow much, I am wondering if it stopped for some reason. It is great that you will get one too!
ReplyDeleteOh, well I hope it starts up again. Most of the time stalled spikes continue to grow.
ReplyDeleteThat's good to know it can still grow. I already have one stalled spike on phal. tetraspis C1 - just a little nub sits there for a month after arrival and doesn't grow too. Is there anything one can do to wake them up?
ReplyDeleteOther than giving them a constant, unchanging environment, I really don't thinks there is anything to do. I think that is a main reason spikes stall, a change in thier environment, or a change if environment. I think this is the same thing that can cause bud blast.
ReplyDeleteYep, I think it makes sense, both of them had an environment change.
