Phalaenopsis with 15+ Flowers: Spike Support and Record Bloom Counts

Supporting a Heavy Spike

• Bamboo stake in pot, tie spike every 6 inches.
• Work when warm (>65°F)—cold spikes are brittle.
• Gentle, gradual bending—sharp angles snap spikes.

Is 15 Flowers Unusual?

Floriferous but not record. 30 flowers on a single 4+ foot unbranched spike is the highest reported. Your branched spike with 15+ is very nice!

Enjoy It

This is peak Phalaenopsis performance. Maintain current care—don't change anything while blooming.
