Elaine, I think you have hit a home run. All my orchids were left out until the end of October-first week in November, and we went through several nights of mid to upper 40's lows and lots of nights in the 50's before I got them in. As of now, only the phal has spikes/sheathes. I now see eight spikes on her. She has two at her base and six on her old spikes.
I am going to cut away the yellowed basal leaves. Thanks for the advise. Even though she has not been repotted for at least two years, I guess this would not be a good time to repot her. Ken
