Well, suffice to say it's a curious event. The plant was dried from Thanksgiving 'til February. I followed winter weather patterns in South FL where Fuchs grows this orchid outdoors so beautifully. It's in the fifties and forties and dry there. I have full sun conditions. What I'm saying is that after a huge flush of new pbs last summer this plant bloomed beautifully on several spikes, which were previously posted, and now this. If you examine your plant, every pb has two jointed segments above the base. Flowers appear from spikes that originate behind yellowish, arrow-shaped notches at the joint lines. These new growths are occurring on the joint line directly below the leaves and originating from those notches. I'll try more photos.
