Phalaenopsis Spikes vs. Roots: Patience Required

Identify Before Acting

Six "spikes" on a year-old Phalaenopsis may be roots. Spikes: green/reddish-green full length. Roots: grey/white with green tip. Both grow in fits and starts. If spikes, some Phalaenopsis are slow starters but then elongate rapidly. Wait and watch.
