Yea! You will likely have multiple flowers spikes some time in the future!

Looking good! As Rosie said, I grow mine in S/H as well. Mine was also near death when I transfered it in the fall, and it put out 8 growths right after. 6 of them were stunted little things that grew tiny little bulbs, but the other 2 are big and healthy.

Woo-hoo! Looking good! I also have a very positive results with the near-death Milt. in s/h. So far, that's the only way i can grow them. Yours is surely recovering nicely!

Don't know if it's the heat we're having right now, but she seems to have stopped. There hasn't been any change the last few days.
This picture was taken almost a week ago and the buds haven't changed. There's no sign they're about to open.

I sure hope they open. Mine seem to take forever, but I would think they should change a bit in a week.

This is how they look today. I think there is some change (though very small).

I hope they continue to develop. The stem on it still looks healthy. I've had the odd bud blast but not often.

One of the buds fell off. The other one is opening but it looks a bit dry. I guess old roots are dying and not enough new roots yet. Will post picture when it opens more.

Finally the bud that was left, opened just a bit. It wouldn't open completely, so I cut the spike and let the plant concentrate on growing new roots and the growing of the two new pseudobulbs. If she manages to adapt to SH she'll give me flowers when time comes.
