I acquired this 1growth venustum 'alba' in april 2008:
got a new leaf in juli 08, then a spike in mai 09:
unfortunately, the stem didn't develop, and I had a bloom without stem. When it had opened I took this pic, and cut off the flower:
This month I had the good surprise to see a normal develpment of the plant , a young new growth emerging in an axil:
And today the shock seeing a spike rising from the old growth!
now: what to do??? Is the plant stressed too much, cut spike and ev. this big thing remaining from that 1st flower (seed pod?)?? Or just let things go on!?
