Sometimes it is tricky..like playing a root or spike game:
This is my Phal Baldan's Kaleidoscope currently in spike, started like this, at least this one is easy enough to see: started in 28Jan2015
Currently, it is taking its sweet time, but almost there:
This other noid Phal, confused me this year, since it lost the lower leaf..but it eventually gave 2 spikes:
It is fun and exciting..I call it the game of root or spike
27Feb2015 : left one is a new root, right one a flower spike
Another batch forming: 11Mar2015
Currently, still pacing it: just to give you an idea how it takes its sweet time as always to develop the buds:
When it is forming the buds already, it helps to just leave it alone in that area, sometimes moving it suddenly to a different location may cause bud blast. But once it is in bloom it will be more stable.
