is my reed stem epi finally making some flowers?

[mattryan]

the title says it all. I asked last year about how to take care of this orchid because I wasn't sure what kind of orchid it was and whiterabbit helped me out. She said that she had one, but hadn't gotten it to bloom yet, so I was on my own. So I am hoping someone here has gotten their's to bloom and can tell me if that's what is going on with mine. Sorry if the pics are fuzzy, but the end is soo small. Thanks for the help, also if there is any special care needed if it is making some flowers.

Oh it is Epi. Fantasy Valley 'Wakakusa'

They start small and keep going it will bloom profusely. The end if the spike keeps extending and blooming.

Yep. Flowers are about 2-3 weeks away. I have most all of the colors. Except white. Can't find white. This year I'm going to chop them down a lot. They are getting way too leggy. Nice if I could get them to flower as a shorter plant. My dad grows them in the ground at the beach where he lives. Had them for decades. He treasures them. Please let us know what color the flowers are.

Yay! my big reed stem epi keeps having problems, so no blooms on that yet, but my small one (Epi. ellipticum) has been blooming for a while now one one spike, with 3 more spikes developing

Well thankyou all very much I was hoping it wasn't a keiki. They are yellow, I have another but got it after it had flowered so no idea. It's great when you try a different type of orchid and you can get it to flower . Wow sonya great growing, thanks again everyone!
