What to do with flower stalks
A newbiw question - I have several phalanopsis, dendrobiums, and, oncydiums
that finished blooming about a month ago. The flower stalks are brown and dry. Should I cut them off, leave them, or what? Thanks. -- Peter Aitken Remove the crap from my email address before using. |

What to do with flower stalks
Welcome Peter, Sounds like you have a good collection going there for a
newbie? You have done the right thing. Now would be the time to cut the old dead spikes. My mentor told me this is the best time to cut as you will not spread any viruses.
