Meet Ophelia the Orchid! I got her in the beginning of this May with a total of 8 buds.  
I've pruned the stem in mid June, when the flowers have finished blooming. In August, a new stem grew from the node \& have been flourishing throughout September. I'm excited to finally seeing my first ever new blooms! 🌺
