one of my faves because it grows like a monster and mine always has 2 spikes, floriferous. Interesting that yours is flowering, mine still has the usual 2 spikes and I'd say still a month to go.

I loved this one from the first time I saw it and it seems to be doing great with me. I have another four phals with spikes to look forward to too.

the flowers look great.
I think I am going to stop predicting when mine will flower, except to say that it is branching which has never happened before.
Do you grow your under lights ? Mine is south-facing - gets at least 4 hrs of sun ( filtered as I am told by the experts that insulated windows block at least 50% UV )
I wonder why yours is flowering sooner than mine.

Thank you. Yes, it's grow under LED lighting but the spike started just before I got the light set up. The light is very bright indeed and has UV etc. I only use a flash because the LED light changes the colour of the flowers.

Thank you. I adore this one. I'm hoping to get longer spikes with more flowers next time.
