Way to go, Julie! 
What conditions are you growing it in?

Well, I guess the conditions are just right for all my orchids because I've not seen this much growing and blooming all summer. I can't believe all the new roots, growths and blooms on all my plants. I've got them under lights and the top self is about 76-78 and the bottom shelf is around 70-72. The humidity never goes below 50% and is up to 100% when I feed them or just water them. I foliar feed them every morning with either fish emulsion or sea weed extract. So there you go and by the way DJ there will be no plant abuse  Happy growing all.
