Default Lockhartia Gold Speck

I got a pleasant surprise when I went to check the 'chids just now! I "thought" I had noticed some buds on this recently but didn't think anything of it...
It now has this one bloom and a few more buds popping out!

The foliage on this one is what catches the eye but the blooms are so so cute! I took one pic of the bloom next to a regular pencil to show you the width of it, it's about 1/2 inch long.

I went back to see when it bloomed last and it was in May 07...I hadn't realized just how much it had grown from then till now!
This is what it looked like last time around:
