My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Single flower right on leaves??

5 years ago




Why did my orchid grow a flower right on the leaves? No spike whatsoever! Weirdest thing and I can’t find anything about it on the internet! Help me out!

    I read about that but there is no spike. Same outcome?

    Don’t do this but if you were to peal back those two leaves you’d likely see a tiny stem. So same outcome.

    yes, but I would not give up hope. If it can't grow new leaves from the crown, it will grow a kieki from the base. I wil just carry on giving it enough light and food and ensure that water does not stay too long in the crown if it gets there while watering or from rain.
