You've got a nice new root there! Good job... to get it to bloom will sometimes take a drop in temperatures at night. Be patient, when it is ready it will spike for you. It looks very healthy!

I bought this phal from the big box couple of months ago as one of those not doing well... kinda thing... Following advise given here in one thread I cleaned the roots and repotted (after holding it for a couple days bare root). She is happy and doing good. She still had couple blooms left when I got her and I cut the spike, but there is something growing... I don't know what that is and is still a little thing so it doesn't look like anything to me yet, but I am very excited!!!

good jobs margo! i'm excited too ... the plant look healthy
margo what the colors of flower look like ?
Here is the bloom of this one.
wow pretty i like the color and little spot on blooms .. if i see this one in the store I'm gonna grab it.
My first impression is a root. The way it narrows near the end, the texture, and the purple tinge near the green tip, it looks like the gravity-defying roots my phals get. Keep your eye on it. Soon you will know for sure.
I would guess root as well, but if it is growing from a spike, who knows! lol Orchids keep us guessing....
Cheers,
