The dollar orchid started blooming Oct. 19. Yesterday and today the two blooms collapsed. That's a long time to have a bloom! I think it may be beginning to put out a new bloom stalk. At least it doesn't look quite the same as the root growth, but it's the first that was generated entirely while being indoors which may make it look different. What do you think?

Looks like a 'mitten" to me. They will often times send up bloom stems this time of year. Glad to hear that you got that nice bloom period. On Phals, my longest was > 6 months.

I have > 10 Phals that will be in full bloom within the next several weeks. With my indoor ones, this is usually (not always) the time of year when mine bloom.

Two of my bloom stems are coming from Keikis still attached to Mother plant.

One plant looks really wild and a pic is impossible to see. This plant has two Keikis set in Summer 14 still on their stems. One of those Keikis has a bloom stem. And the Mother is throwing a blooming stem as well.
