    Yes, I can definitely see the besseae in that plant, can't wait to see it in bloom. Can you take another picture next to a bright window (if you want to)?

    LOL! I'm TOTALLY just giving you a hard time.

    LeAnn will put new growths out above their media, so they often flop over--but without being familiar, there's no way you would have known that.

    Just prop the growth up on the stake (the spike isn't tall enough to clip yet without making everything lean over) and that way it won't droop. Then when it's time to repot, just plant the growth down in the media and it'll stay upright.

    me for not having told you that sooner.....
