First blooming for a plant I had to put into Sphag/Bag/Heat Pad. It's finally pulling through, and showing signs of life. This bud surprised me, as I didn't know the spike had reactivated. Glad I didn't cut it off now. This has some real potential if I can get it to flatten out. This is the best of the 2 I have.

Updated photo now that this one has Rebloomed. Awesome flower, big and thick. Hopefully once the plant gets a bit stronger this will flatten out a bit. Smells a little like lemons.

This is such an inspirational story! Thanks for sharing it with us.
We often hear about Sphag-N-Bag but very rarely about what's happened after.

I was so nervous to replant a couple of my Phals after they grew a few new roots in S-N-B. They are doing not too bad now although looking more like seedlings at this point. Can't wait to see them starting a spike. This would be The Day!!!
