Found this one in bloom in my office. Im so happy, I've been waiting a while for this. I hope it gets more buds though:

cool looking blooms! I like the way the roots grasp on the mount.

Kinda of an itsy bitsy guy, isn't it?

[IdahoOrchid]

Gee, you "just found" it? Man, I know EXACTLY which plants are in spike and flowering.

Hmmmmm, maybe that is why they take so long to bloom?

[eikon]

that's soo cute! is that as big as the leaf span gets?

I love it, I love it!

Tindo, I'm just jealous... mine's in spike but I can't imagine having a couple of spikes and a couple of flowers on a spike and..... *sigh*
But to be unlike my pessimistic self, at LEAST I'm getting spikes on my own LOL!!! YAY!!!

Tik, now that I look upon it, I do see the bunny ears. Hehe.
I knew the plant was in spike, its just that I didn't get to see it in the process of opening. So I just sort of found it in bloom.
Are you kidding me! I watch my plants like a hawk. I know exactly who is in spike. Except for my Oncidium 'Sharry Baby' Which managed to grow a 6" spike without me noticing. But now its at 17"! Woo-hoo!!!
Anyway, this little Phal has quickly become one of my favorite of Phals. And to think I started liking Phals only for their moth like flowers. Now I like bunny ears. I don't think the leaf span on this one gets much larger, I've read that the plant becomes decidous in drier conditions, so I'm keeping it in a vivarium to see if it will grow more leaves rather than just replace old ones.
I got this plant in the summer (I can't remember what month though, Tik, do you remember?
Thanks all!
