Talking A Spike...Finally!!!

Well, I have patiently waited on the sideline while a phal with unknown identity recovered from it's previous owner's neglect. It has been 3 very long years, and it is finally going to flower. I discovered a 2 inch long spike on it during this morning's watering! I can't wait to see what the flowers look like...it is like an early Christmas, lol.
