My orchid is growing a flower branch!
The orchid was a present from my sister, probably about a year ago, and the flowers from back then are long gone. She told me that with some orchids, you can cut the flower stalk at a node, and it'll make a new flower branch from the stalk instead of growing a whole new stalk. Months ago, I did that and the stalk has stayed green. Now, new growth!
I have a second orchid (present from G for my birthday back in April), again, flowers long gone. I tried the node cutting method on that plant and recently noticed the flower stalks have browned and shriveled. Guess that kind has to grow new stalks every time.
