Default Fdk. After Dark ‘SVO Amazing' x Ctsm. Mark Dimmitt ‘Ed Wise'

Hello, new to the board, grateful to have received the help I've already had in a couple of threads.
I had the winning bid on the Fdk. After Dark ‘SVO Amazing' x Ctsm. Mark Dimmitt ‘Ed Wise' at the NCOS auction last month. At the time I got the plant it's leaves were about to fall. I've not been watering having managed to pick up that much info so far. There seems to be a small growth at the base of the largest newest bulb . Is this a spike or a new bulb coming ? Also if anyone has a picture of this hybrid in flower that would be wonderful.
Something about the plant spoke to me at the auction or I would never have bid 56 dollars for it.
Thanks in advance
Steve

Check out the SVO website for bloom pics. I'd say it's a new growth.

Actually, its too early to tell what that is. If the top is very round (which is how it looks to me in the pics), it will be a spike. If its a very sharp point, then it will be a growth.

Ah, I guess we will have to wait because it looks like a triangle to me

You should be able to tell within a week whether its pointy or round.
