Default Blooming spikes!
My phals are going a riot! spike everywhere. Amadeus, below has two spikes with a possible third growing and has four branching spikes but are not so easy to see.





Sin Yuan Golden Beauty is also throwing out spikes and roots like time is about to stop. Vanda purple 055 is hanging in there and has been blooming for well over two months.




Phal Amabilis grandiflora 'Creole' is producing two spike for the first time since I got it.




Asc. Cherry Red Pearl is blooming nicely too.





Phal Yu Pin Pearl has three spikes and I'm really looking forward to seeing what it produces, colour-wise, this year!

Thank both. The weather here has been perfect for producing multiple spikes. Once the temps reach 78F I open the door a little. Both vents are open then, too. Not too much sun and so not so much heat is produced. If the temps haven't gone above 82F for too long there should be lots of flowers too but time will tell.
