| my first spike ever! :)
so here i was thinking that one of my 6 phals would eventually respike first and that my den was slowly dying. but now, the phals are just kinda sitting there while my den has decided to bloom! this is my first ever rebloom on any of my plants. i waited a couple weeks to make sure this was a) really a spike and b) that i wouldn't kill it. so far so good  plant is a Den. Hollywood.

Isn't it exciting to get your first spike? Your plant looks so healthy. Nice and shiny. It definitely likes the way you treat it.

first bloom finally opened today the only problem with this plant is it's almost impossible to get the true color of the flower in a photo. i tried all sorts of lighting and flash settings and whatnot, and i either got it washed out (overexposed) or too dark to see. anyway, the best i can do. much prettier in person, however: |

Wow!!!! I am so happy for you. Congrats!!!! I am still hoping for my first spike....  With your post and pictures I am more convinced now that it's possible to have orchids in Colorado. Thanks. Are you moving closer to Louisville???? See, I am evil too..... Good luck with moving. |
