Succeeding Opsis Vs. failing Opsis

Not a bat struck all day.
Never budged.
20:30 >>>--------->AAaaaaargh!

"They" tell us that if you behead a Phalaenopsis, while there's still a viable flower atop, you may get a second flush.

To test the theory ...
Bottom right = beheaded after flower-drop, a while ago.
Top Left = beheaded with one, unopened, bud at top, last week.
Both stalks are this, current, flower crop.

We shall see.

Comical aside ... How do yanks spell "Phalaenopsis"? Most Spill-chuckers seem to detest "proper" English and the resident Blipspeller tells me it's wrong.
