Clumsy me :(
Do you think a flower spike this short on a Psychopsis Mariposa will recover from a broken tip ?
Cheers,
Burak.

Looks like there is still a node or two--good chance I'd say. Sorry about your mishap!

I think it will still bloom... it may send out a new spike on one of the nodes...

I've heard these spikes have a way of correcting themselves

Oh NO! I am sure somewhere that there was a post with photos from McJulie with regrowth on her psychopsis.... could be thinking of the wrong plant...
Fingers and toes are crossed for you!

Be patient. If there is a node on the spike, it should put out a new spike from there. It may take some time, but DO NOT CUT THE SPIKE!!! I broken 3 or 4 of mine, not quite so close to the plant, but they all put out a new spike from the highest node. (Kerry is right about Julie, she broke hers and followed my instructions and it is now either in bud or bloom...)
Sorry it happened, I know how frustrating it is.
