Normally when I see a small pointy leaf emerging that are hairy and has some dark pigmentation, it's a spike cover or spike itself.
Well, I had such leaf on my paph. Delrosi back in July and got all excited.
Well, that turned out to be just another leaf, but smaller, so I was thinking ok maybe the next one should be a sheath.
Now it is sending up even darker and hairier leaf and I'm really hoping it's a spike this time.
Please, please, please, please let it a spike.
