Catt has new growth

One of my catts wasn't do so well. So about three weeks ago I ordered a S/H starter kit. After receiving the kit it took a few days to get up some nerve. Well today I noticed two nice roots and a new pseudobulb starting. Now If I can just keep it going.

One mosquito larve is $200 fine from the Environmental official. I rather spent $200 on plants and fungicides

Here's a pic of a new pseudobulb coming along. Today I noticed that it another one. The white on the left side of the pic is one of the new roots.
