Terri, I just checked again, and I think you are right - there is going to be more than one flower! Yippee!! I wouldn't have known to look unless you said something!

Right on Shan Wooooooot! It's progressing nicely. Hopefully there's no stall, just keep doing what your doing. Once the spike gets a certain size your buds will begin to swell and get larger & larger.
There's always room for slippers

Thanks everyone! I sure hope it does continue at this rate and doesn't stall. This seedling has some good parentage, so I'm dying to see what the flowers look like.
Don, LOL! In the first picture, the only way I could tell it was a spike and not a new leaf was by looking down into the fan of leaves. I could see the stem below the bracts/guard leaves. LOL! Now, every time I see a new leaf popping out, I have to check down in the leaves now!

If only next month's orchid society meeting weren't a social BBQ. I would love to take this one in to put on the table!
