    Talking Onc. ornithorhynchum making a come back

    I posted a picture of my Onc. ornithorhynchum with a broken spike a couple of months ago it had got stuck in the green foliage probably due to lack of humidity. Well I decided to water a bit more often and see what happened, I was told that it could branch and flower for me but to be honest I thought this years chance of flowers was gone and I would have to wait for next year, well a few days ago I was watering and checking them over and I spotted this new spike. I was absolutely stunned that it is so determined to flower and also that I had missed the spike until it was quite long. I so hope that the flowers develop properly and I get to see it in flower, It will be a first bloom for this little one as I bought it as an unbloomed seedling back in february. I think its going to be a favourite if its this determined to bloom despite me!
