| Any green on the plant, whether in root form or in leaf form, can do some photosynthesis. However, having said that, leaves are the main source of getting energy for plant, so even if there is the possibility of a new leaf or some roots on the top, this is NOT nearly enough to sustain and support flower growth. As mayres said, don't focus on flowering the orchid if you would like it to survive. Put bluntly, it can't focus on that right now if it doesn't have any leaves. It needs the leaves first.
