Wierd Pbulb
I have three divisions of Slc. Mini Beau. I had all three growing as one in S/H, it wasn't as happy as I thought it could be, so I proceeded slowly over the months to put the divisions, one by one into my vivariums . Ok, the latest transfer lost both of the mature leaves it had, but the youngest one is still alive and kicking. This one also decided to grow roots, so there is alot of hope. Then suddenly the the pseudobulb burst out of the papery sheath that usually covers them. The pbulb is all curved and looks rather deformed. Not sure if this was a response to new light conditions or what? 

What do you all think?
P.S. I turned the plant around so the roots grow into the background rather than away from it.
