I've seen a LOT of catts over the years and this particular plant just keeps amazing me with the tricks it pulls. I posted earlier about it throwing a new leaf off of the center of a pseudobulb which I learned isn't too uncommon. Now the puppy has sprouted a new leaf and obvious pseudobulb on top of another leaf and pseudobulb and I've NEVER seen that. Umm is this thing doing freaky reactions to colchecine treatment (I know it was treated) since it's 4N? Somebody here has to have experience with LC 'Love Knot v coerulea' and can give me a clue please?

Maybe it is a new growth that will become a keiki? That does sound odd, but hey are the roots happy? Good luck!

Nah, it's not a keiki I think but perhaps more of an attempt to create a pagoda look just for the weirdness effect. I didn't think to check the submedia roots because it was actively growing but the visible aerial ones are sorta gnarled and twisty which I figured was a symptom of the colchecine too since the humidity has been consistent. I'll have to post a pic of the silly thing one day just to show you guys how weird it is.

Please do Ernie! It would be interesting to see.

Maybe it is that Mississippii Heat! :poke: How have your temps been down there? We have been really mild. Do post a photo if you can.
