I posted my plant last July into this thread, I was very happy when it finally bloomed for me.
http://cubits.org/orchids/thre...
here and the following....I couldn't stop taking pictures. Btw it still bloomed from that very same spike into Fall.

But - as I mentioned, I started out with such a small plant, it was really only 1 rooted leaf.
If I were you, I would start dancing!!

Just starting and hope nothing interferes with it. It's on the move (growing a bit more each day) so I'm encouraged. This plant was lots of $ from Piping Rock with 4 growths.
