So is this a keiki? Female
Default So is this a keiki?

This is my very, very sad orchid.


It's looked like this for a few years now. Earlier this year it tried to grow that new little leaf, but then is stopped because I got busy and let it go dry. It's just been sitting like this for several months. I tried to recreate the conditions it was in when it started growing that leaf (sphagnum, kept moist) but nothing happened. And then a week or so ago I noticed a little growth at the base. I was afraid it was a last ditch effort at a flower spike but as it's grown I'm starting to think it's a keiki.






What do you think? If it is a keiki what do I do? Just leave it be? When would it be able to live independently? I hope it does well, I've pretty much given up any hope of the main plant recovering, so a new little plant would be nice if it can do well despite an unhealthy "mother" plant.
