Dracula mantisa spike!

[Nepenthesguy]

I bought a division of Dracula mantissa and it arrived last week, and it had the beginnings of a small spike. Now a week later the spike has doubled in length! Last time I had drac's they would only form a small nub of a spike before aborting it, so I'm beyond stoked this one has continued to develop!!! (photo from 11/9, slight color change has occured since photo was taken):

Also if anyone has cultural info for Stelis alata and Stelis crescentiicola it would be much appreciated!!
