Maxillaria tenuifolia buds

It must be spring, because now I keep discovering buds even on the orchids that are out of orchid tanks.
Buds of maxillaria are quite unnoticeable but I did spot this one yesterday:



On closer inspection it turned out that there are few more starting to climb out of the papery sheaths:



So, my Maxi proved to be the easiest plant to grow and the easiest plant to bloom from all the orchids I ever had. It doesn't mind low humidity, it is fine being potted into plastic pot with moss therefore doesn't need to be watered too often and I did nothing special to have her budding now. I really need to check Ecuagenera website for other maxillarias...
