Spikes or new PB's??

[Bobfharris]

I agree on color..I even have some greens whose spike and new growths are very red (Dolores Hoyt x Tom Thumb) 'Tamara'
And vice versa on the reds. But I will say that if you have seedlings of a red or orange and there is more red or orange at the bases of the pseudo bulbs there is a greater likelihood that the color is more intense..

I don't have much experience with cymbidium, but I vote "spikes" for both. Let us know if I win

I vote for spikes too.

Mine has something looking quite like that at the momment so I'm really hoping it's spikes

Keep us updated with how yours develop.

So these 'growths' have grown out a little more. I'm pretty sure they are spikes because when I gently squeeze them it feels like a spike stem with some buds starting to develop above it. YEA!!! I have never bloomed this one before so I'm excited. Thanks everyone. I'll post up some pics when it starts blooming.
