im so excited! today i found my very first neo spike EVER

im soo excited!
i got this
neo. falcata 'setsuzan' last july and it was a 1 growth plant, but had previously bloomed. it got 2 tiny nubbins last september, but both just stopped growing. eventually one started up again and ended up being another fan, while the other one still slept. they both looked exactly the same, so i just assumed that i would be a fan to, if it ever decided to move. well i heard that neos can be tricky, so i wasnt really expecting to get any flowers. so i just put it with the rest of the plant and watered it. nothing special.
well today when i was watering, i noticed that the tip of one leaf was sitting in a puddle or something, so the tip got cut off. it wasnt until after i put the plant back that i noticed the spike. i cant beieve it took me so long. the spike is already about 1" long!
there are 6-7 tiny buds so far!
