double spikes on stanhopea candida?
just checked out the stanhopea thats hanging in the shower and it is pushing out 5 spikes at present time! The weird thing is that one pbulb is sending out 2 seperate spikes. I didnt realize candida would do that. Is this normal, or is this just one happy chid?

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Ok you cant see all the spikes but this gives you a general idea of overall size. The large spike actually has 3 buds on it. Last summer itonly had 2 buds per spike. If I am correct this one blooms twice a year.
