Will my Phalaenopsis Newberry Parfait orchid ever bloom again?
I made a huge mistake with my orchid, I cut the entire bloom stem off last summer when the last flowering finished. The base plant is healthy & has lots of vigorous new growth, no sign of insect infestation, but there is also no sign of a new bloom stem either. I feed it with scotts orchid food every time I water except once a month I soak the clay pot in plain water & scrub off the salt deposits. Is there anything I can do to stimulate a new bloom stem?
It was in full bloom last July-August (I recieved it as a gift in full bloom) It gets full southern exposure in my sun room.
When did the plant start flowering last time? If it was in Feb. or March, you may not see a spike starting until at least Thanksgiving, perhaps Christmas. Phals are pretty regular yearly bloomers, either winter blooming types (Christmas through early spring start) or summer bloomers (June through Sept. start).
Cutting off the flower stem is not a big mistake. On some types, cutting a green stem will sacrifice a second bloom, or even a baby plant- but just on a quick check, I don't think Newberry Parfait has the parentage to be likely to do either of those. (the small, multibranched phals will do those, it's fun!). Cutting a brown, dried stem is never a mistake.
If you don't see a bloom spike starting in the next couple of months, you may want to check your light- not enough light is the most common cause for a healthy phal not blooming. If you're familiar with African violets, you want to give the phal enough light so that the AV's leaves cup and curl from too much light. I grow phals under fluorescents- 2- 2-tube shoplights (4 tubes total) about 12-18" above the plant.
Good luck!
Okay- sounds like a summer bloomer, then. So the spike will probably not start until mid-late spring. Until then, the plant will be putting its energy into lots of pretty new leaves and roots. A southern exposure should be enough light- if the leaves start looking kind of hard, really pale green, and shrunken, you may want to put a lace curtain or something to filter the light.
