New growth on dendrobium

Very surprised and excited about the new growth on the pink and white dendrobium - a new spike AND a new pseudobulb! I had originally put this in a decorative glazed clay pot after the flowers had died but heard from others that their similar dendrobiums had rotting roots so I transferred it again a few weeks ago into a plastic pot with more drainage below.

Didn't realise that you could get a second spike on a pseudobulb which had already flowered so very thrilled to see this!  I was expecting to have to wait till a new pseudobulb grew and matured...
