like 3 plants with spikes! My Phal that bloomed last year has a little bit of a spike (pretty sure) and a Onc Dancing Lady has been in spike for a month or so, and my mini Onc (that's all the label says) has 2 spikes at the moment. Please check out my pics and let me know if my phal has a spike or root.
Thanks!

Congrats!!!!!! Hope we'll see the blooms soon!
Well done! It's always a great joy to discover a spike on ones plant. The one on the phal seems very plump too.
yeah congrats on the spikes.... show us the flowers when they bloom....
Congratulations Allison, and well done for getting them to bloom... they obviously enjoyed being outside for the warmer months and your attention...
thanks for the nice replies. The funny thing about this is that I really didn't take good care of them this summer. They probably should have been watered more often. I brought them in when I woke up and saw it was 35 deg F outside. Maybe having the cool nights helped them spike?? I hope it won't be too much longer before the first one blooms.
Hi Allison! That is great news. I look forward to seeing photos of the blooms. And 35 degree weather for a night won't hurt them. Extended time at that temp would not be good though. Don't ever let them freeze
Cheers,

yeah, they all seem to be at different stages....the oncidium should bloom first, then the mini onc, then the phal in the winter. I might have blooms till april!
