Default Baby Phal's first flowering!!!!

About 2 years ago, I got a tiny, pathetic little phal from a friend of mine that had not a clue as to how to grow it. It was donated to my collection and has been thriving! I have no idea what color it might be, but just yesterday I noticed two spikes emerging, and they look very large for a first-bloom plant! My friend thought it might be white with a magenta lip, but nobody knows for sure. I'm so excited, I just had to tell somebody! When it finally blooms, pictures will be posted!!!

Can you post pics? Are you sure those aren't roots (not to doubt you)? I am so happy for you. It's always a blast to find a plant finally in spike.

I'm 100% sure that one is a spike, the other is too deep within the leaves to tell with certainty. Both are unusually close to the crown of the plant, but this orchid is so healthy and vigorous, I'm sure that it has a wonderful show in store for us come January!
