Catasetum redland blackcherry (ctsm jumbo pearl 'serdang oo oo' x ctsm penang)
second spike, the first one is 2 months plus ago. just to share the appearance of this spike. the base of the spike had a modified pseudobulb stucture (last pic), with roots of its own and later may give out new growth. it is does this time, it would be the second time for this hybrid.
my other catasetums had this occasionally but never one with a modified pseudobulb developed enough to give rise to a new growth. most of them withers with the spike.
