Some seven month ago, I used a growth hormone paste on a node of a flower stem of one of my orchids. With it I was able to generate a Keiki.
A keiki is the product of asexual propagation by a mature plant resulting in an exact clone of its parent. Keikis first look like miniature leaves that slowly grow into a miniature plant. Growth of Orchid Flower Stem- University of FloridaKeiki in Hawaiian means "baby" or "child". It means a "the little one".
Here the articles I have written about it
3 months ago:
and 7 month ago:
In probably two months or less, I shall cut and separate the Keiki from the mother plant and plant it on its own.
There is no telling if it will survive. But it looks healthy, isn't it ? We shall wait and see.
In the meantime, this is a Phalaenopsis Orchid., also known as moth orchids. All I have in my home are Phalaenopsis orchids.
These are easy to grow! They seem to like it here in the music room. It is very bright here during the day. The bright light is from the windows, although it is not direct light.
I water them once a week, less during Winter, and more now that it is Spring and Summer. They also enjoy the mild, warm, and somewhat humid environment.
Well, let me leave you with this quote. What is happiness to you?
Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existense.

but you know, fifty dollars is fifty dollars.......
""Fred"" and his wife Esther went to the state fair every year, and every year ""Fred"" would say, 'Esther, I'd like to ride in that helicopter.' Esther always replied, 'I know ""Fred"", but that Helicopter ride is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty dollars.'
One year Esther and ""Fred"" went to the fair, and ""Fred"" said, 'Esther, I'm 85 Years old. If I don't ride that helicopter, I might never get another chance.' To this, Esther replied, '""Fred"" that helicopter ride is fifty dollars, and fifty dollars is fifty dollars.'
The pilot overheard the couple and said, 'Folks I'll make you a deal. I'll take the both of you for a ride, and if you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word, I won't charge you. But if you say one word, it's fifty dollars.'
""Fred"" and Esther agreed and up they went. The pilot did all kinds of fancy maneuvers, but not a word was heard. He did his daredevil tricks over and over again, but still not a word.
When they landed, the pilot turned to ""Fred"" and said, 'By golly, I did everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't. I'm impressed!'
""Fred"" replied, 'Well, to tell you the truth, I almost said something when Esther fell out, but you know, fifty dollars is fifty dollars.’

Pleasure seeing patience practiced with plant life 😅
That is one lovely color, so velvety and rich.
I hope your Keike works out well. I know it must be a fun adventure to try to make it happen.
I hope the Keike will survive!
Let's give it a couple of months, @jacey.boldart!
It is taking forever!!!

How beautiful your orchids are @silversaver888 😊
And great that it succeeded to create a keiki. Hope the transplant goes well in a few months.
I love the dark colour.
I didn't know there was an orchid community, I posted today a post I could cross post about an orchid house coincidentally. Will for sure post my next orchid posts in the community as I have so many photos of orchids.
Thank you for introducing me to the community 🥰
Oh your welcome @littlebee4
I usually use just a few communities ... Ladies of Hive, Shadow Hunters, Wednesday Walk, Market Friday and this: Orchid Lovers.

Very nice! I have just one orchid (my other 2 died) and it resides at work. It's very happy but hasn't bloomed since I bought it a number of years ago. Maybe one day when I retire, I'll try to do more with orchids. Yours are very pretty! Thanks for sharing sis!🤗😘🌸💘
It will bloom, you'll see!
Flowers are really nice, sis.
Hugs and kisses, sis 🤗😘🌸

The Keiki is growing quite well @silversaver888!! I remember that first post when you started with a node of a flower stem.....Amazing!!!🤗
I would be so worried about cutting and separate the Keiki from the mother plant.....
Let us know how this progresses!!!
Me too.
I'll be very careful, when the day comes, @silvertop !

Orchids are absolutely my favourite flowers. I always have them in my home. Great to know that there is a community. You plant looks healthy maybe one day I will try a Keiki.
When you do try it, tell me how it goes, okay!
Have a nice day, @momogrow !
