Two-Fer

This is unusual - at least for me. I always thought of my Paph as making a single flower on a spike. Sure, there might be two or three spikes, if the plant was very happy, but this is the first time I've gotten two flowers on a single spike. So I guess this Paph can be a multi-floral if it has had an exceptional year.

Here is a close-up of the spike. Notice that there is a leaf-like structure part way up the spike, and then two thinner spikes come from there.

In other news, three more of the Phalaenopsis "babies" are putting up spikes, so soon we'll see if there is any variability in those flowers. They are hardly babies any more, really. But it will be a month or two before they are actually in bloom.
