Sounds pretty normal, Reka. In my experience, the rhizome elongates, then
seems to turn upward where the new bulb will eventually be, then it grows up
and forms new leaves. Once those new leaves get reasonably substantial in
size, the pseudobulb will fatten.

Incidentally, if you get the urge to transplant it to S/H culture (where it
will do great), be sure that rhizome stays at the surface, not submerged, or
it will rot for sure.

My first Zygo (well, my second; I cooked the first one in the car years
ago) is putting out new growths on new growths which haven't even
developed thickened pseudobulbs yet. Is this normal? It seems to be
sitting firmly in the medium I repotted it into at purchase, so I figure
the roots are okay. Or should I check?
