Default A cym question

this is my first healthy cym re-bloom. For some reason mini cyms are easier for me than standards. I am soo happy!!! All the flowers opened on this spike by march 11 this month, so when I was looking at it today I think that it is growing 2 more spikes. I'm still not the greatest at determining growth or spike, but I'm pretty sure. I gave both of them a gentle squeeze and they are not firm. Is it common to be growing a spike so far apart in time? Also this time of year it's almost April here! Thanks for the replies. First pic is the spike now others are the new hopefully 'spikes'.

They look like spikes to me! Tho, I have been known to be mistaken

Often, mini Cyms are "warmth tolerant" - not requiring the cool period to initiate spikes, and can bloom more than once a year.

One of my Cyms (standard), did once bloom three times in one year...

Isn't it almost April everywhere?

Seriously though, I hear you. It's getting on towards spring, even in Canada.

Beautiful plant, and congratulations on the re-bloom!
