The buds have gotten bigger since last time i posted this pics, one of them its already out of the sheath or whatever its called and its looking down now, the second one its starting to come out. There is 4 buds total. How many flowers can you get from this phrag?? and do all of them bloom at the same time or its just one at a time. I have it outside and it gets full sun from 8am-11am and about 40% shade from 11am-2pm and full sun from 2pm-6pm

The buds were getting bigger and most of them were coming out, i saw at least 5 of them but last week my neighboor's do decide to play with my orchid and chewed off half the spike and it also chewed half of the plant. Half of the leaves are all broken and dying. I was so exited for the bloom and now the plant was almost killed
