Orchid Bloom Spike

The bloom spike on my orchid Phalaenopsis 'Happy Girl' is not only getting larger, it's branching!
 

Looks like an ominous "claw" in silouette...

...but a budding beauty up close.

 
The spike has three branches thus far, which hopefully means lots of flowers are on the way...


...especially if the old green spike starts budding too!

If only the process weren't so slow (not that I'm complaining :)
