That link works. And the nub at the base is too small to tell what it is. If it stays round at the top like it is now, then its a spike. If it gets more pointy, then its a new growth.

Thanks and I'll wait and will notify you as it progresses along. And I will defintely post a picture of its open flowers and buds. Its a blackish flower when I got them and it had a cinnamon fragrance.

I finally know what it is. It is one spike and two new growths! But one question what makes flowers dry up and fall off. I'll post pics this weekend since I have school.
