My Phalaenopsis orchid grows oddly. After 9 flowers, it paused growing new flowers, now there’s a bunch of new flower buds as the first batch of flowers start to die off. If I’m lucky, I’ll get at least another 6 flowers.

My orchid blooms again!
Once again my phalaenopsis orchid is in bloom. This plant is about six years old and seems to be very happy.
For care, I water it about once a week, and mist it almost daily. It is placed in a north facing window in my kitchen along with some other plants and I fertilize it occasionally.
I don’t prune it and I let it’s air roots run wild. In the photo you can even see the flower stem from last year that still hasn’t died off yet.
