Roots n' Shoots

Well, Brigitte, it's taking me a while to catch up on my Geek reading, but I've enjoyed a few threads very much. So, as one who LOVES ALL growth on 'chids, and finds roots n' shoots every bit as fascinating as blooms, (after all blooms are just the icing on the cake!) Here's a few pics of a NoID phal that I believe has decided to do some growing. I guess that lower thing is a basal keiki? And I have no idea what's coming out of the top, but my money is on root!
The little Coelogyne fimbriata that was sold to me a Coel. miniata has decided to start ramblin' as well. Here's hoping I NEVER own so many 'chids I lose even a fraction of the enthusiasm I started with and STILL have.
For everyone who never gets tired of new growth. Enjoy!
Cheers,
Tony

I know what you mean Tony, especially after a battle with scale. It is so nice to see some of them recover with new growth and roots, and new growths lead to blooms!
