    Default green emerald ladyslipper rebloom?

    Hi everyone,
    I've inquired about this plant before, but I'm still frustrated with her, and lately she has been putting out tons of new growth. But still, I can't get even a whisper of a spike. I have her potted in s. moss with a mixture of fine orchid bark at the very bottom. She gets fairly bright indirect sun from a south-facing window (which is really really big) and I feed her about once every 14 days. In the past three months she has put out four new leaves, and today I saw a fifth baby leaf. She's getting taller and taller, and she seems to be a healthy, happy plant. Do any of you have a suggestion on how I can get her to rebloom. She hasn't sent up a spike since March of last year, and when she did, it was a gorgeous bloom that lasted over three months!! Any help would be great.
    thanks,
    Cat
