Encyclia cochleata pseudo on pseudo?

Greetings,

This is new to my collection this spring, and watering this morning I noticed that there is a pseudobulb growing from another pseudobulb that lost its leaf (there are actually two like this on the plant). I thought I would ask - is this normal? An indication of stress? Perhaps overwatering during winter rest period? The plant has been repotted into a slightly larger basket than the pot it was in, would overcrowding cause this?

I'm given to believe that any new growth is good, but ya never know...

Thanks in advance.
