Laelia purpurata var carnea

Last year at our spring show I purchased a bare root Laelia purpurata var carnea from a South American vendor. Right after I planted it it sprouted roots that are now about 10 inches long over the side of the pot. They are still growing exponentially! But the pseudobulbs are withered and no new vegetative growth has started. I can see an eye on the newest bulb, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Suggestions, thoughts?
