Default Could this possibly be a Vanda spike (would be my first)

I'm still very unsure about looking after my Vanda (which is potted)... but it has another new leaf starting, lots of new roots on the surface of the medium... and what is this... is it possible this 'nubbin' coming up between two leaves is a spike?

This Vanda is Crimson Cloud x Taweewan and it's a complex hybrid which has so much sanderiana in at every level of every part of the complex cross that it works out arround 60% sanderiana. It has that nice two tone top and bottom effect that comes from sanderiana.

Anyway, I'm really excited that this may be a spike... what do you think?

Thanks everyone. This is my one and only Vanda and this will be my first home-grown spike. So excited, only a couple of days ago I was thinking I might have to ask you guys how you go about getting Vanda's to spike, but looks like I don't need to now
