Reblooming

Once a Phalaenopsis has finished flowering, you can encourage it to flower again by cutting off the spike above the second ‘eye’. By ‘eye’ we mean the thickened node on the spike. Start counting from the bottom.

If the Phalaenopsis produces air roots that grow outside the pot, this is a sign that the orchid is healthy. Just leave the roots alone. You don’t have to push them back in the pot. You may even damage them by doing so.
