Nice job, Zain!!
I have this species, too. Mine plant (not alba) is in spike now. I will take a picture tomorrow.
I also have Aerides odorata alba; I bought two plants 5 years ago but they did not do well in my conditions. I gave one to Cathy (cdayinflorida). She is a great vandacious grower. I hope her plant is doing fine. My plant is not dead yet but close to it. I came to a conclusion that alba form is more difficult to grow.
