Default Another Round of Spike or Leaf: Starring Dracula Lotax!

Okay... you know my question... and I'm pretty sure this teeny little thing is a spike, as it is growing from the same area where the old spikes on this plant grew from, at the base of a leaf. I've got like four of these little buggers all over the plant... after seeing it do nothing for six months.

Maybe it was the switch to distilled water that did it. I don't know and I'm not gonna jinx it by changing ANYTHING.

I'll upload some more pics when I find my macro lens... but for now... I got this one shot with my iPhone.

It's the teeny, teeny thin thing that looks sort of like a green needle, next to the leaf.

Oh crap... that looks awful. How can you tell anything? It's so blurry! Fresh pics coming up as soon as I find that lens.

If you want to try to guess, its the right side of the two pronged fork at the top of the photo.

Better pics!



You can see two of them in this one, I think these are just new leaves cropping up though... not sure they are spikes.



Then there's this weird thing here that grows... and stops growing.. then grows again... it's sort of a weird shape for a leaf, but the spikes on these are super, super thin... about the size of a sewing needle so I can't really imagine this being a spike... could it?
