SF, I totally relate. I have an Aerides houlletiana behaving like that... just sat there for more than a year, suddenly put out a big, fat root (almost as thick as the stem) and is just starting to put out new growth at the crown. Cherish all roots! From the root machines and the survivors! Where there are roots, can flowers be far behind?

Sometimes tags inhibit blooming... those NOIDs grow and bloom just to say "Nyahhhh, I don't need a name!" Looks great!

Beautiful... just drop it into a large pot to hold it until after it blooms, then repot.
