Why isn't my orchid plant blooming?
When my orchid plant was done blooming last year, I cut the stem way down. My daughter in laws is starting to bloom already again and she didn't cut the stem. Maybe I did a horrible thing. Will it still grow a new stem? It has lots of roots growing and looks healthy. But not sign of a new stem. Thanks

How to Re-bloom Your Orchids
Don't cut the stems let them die back naturally. And give then 4 bloks of ice 1 a week if it's not too hot to each plant
They will grow a new stem but sometimes it takes a really long time. I had one I almost killed and it hasn't had a new stem for a few years. I've been babying it, just give it time to recover.
thank you so much. I would never discard it, but keep wondering if it will ever
recover. I have thought so as it grows roots like crazy. Go figure. LOL Thx for your response.
