The sight of spike coming is always exciting, but when it comes with a bonus, it is extra nice! 
Brachy x micranthum. The first photo was taken two months ago, and the second one today. The spike has been growing VERY slowly obviously.
I have two of this in the same state, but only posting one as they basically look about the same.
Franz Glanz. Slow but steady grower. This is its second blooming, but the first one blasted on me last year. due to shipping in the cold.
Mem. Ken-Ichi Abe. This is Norito Hasegawa x Fanaticum. bought was a seedling a few years ago. It has been frustratingly slow to grow that I almost tossed it out last year when one leaf developed a few black spots.
Luckily, those black spots never spread further.
This plant is weak with little roots, but it is finally making a sheath and today I found that there is a small new shoot poking above the lower leaves.
Do you see it?? I'm glad it is not stoloniferous. is that a word??
Wössner China Moon. I had this for about two three years. It has been a very good grower and now it is in bud. I can actually see the bud deep inside that sheath. and there is a tiny little new growth at the plant base.
I'm so excited about this one!
Hilo Key Lime. Great grower and bloomer, but won't clump up yet.
Very large flower on a tall spike.
Cam's Cloud. Not my kind of flower, but the plant looked very appealing to me at the Piping Rock Orchids tent at the last Park Side Summer Fest last year. It was about half the size then. So it has been a quite speedy grower.
I'm rather dreaded about the flower. hopefully maybe I might end up with an exception!

This plant is an excellent grower. Current two growths in bud, and each has its own new growth!
Emma Decker.
Bought this as a seedling a couple of years ago.
It spiked last year, which was a pleasant surprised. but then the spike just sat there forever doing nothing until it finally dried up and died about 10 months later. It soon developed a new growth which is now in spike. and yes, a new growth again! willing grower and bloomer apparently, but it just has to push it all the way now!
