Patience! It could be several weeks but that spike looks wonderful! I look forward to seeing those flowers too. And I am sure that NikkiM will show us!

By the way, the plant is not a "she". "It" is more appropriate, as they have both male and female reproductive organs.

There are some orchids that have all male-, or all female flowers, depending upon the growing conditions, but most are 2-in-1.

Sorry I have been so busy lately. Here “it” is... five gorgeous flowers that have been open for about 3 1/2 weeks now.

I have a small space heater in my "orchid room." Just lowered the heat by ten degrees and will do that for another couple of weeks. If they don't set spikes, I'm going to be seriously bummed.
