Angraecum distichum (in spectacular blooms)

[Bud]

Presenting Angraecum distichum, who loves a hot and humid environment, small Lockhartia-like epiphyte from elevations of 200 to 1600 meters with leafy stems that form large clumps and carrying distichous, falcately oblong-elliptic, bilaterally compressed leaves that blooms on a very short, axillary, solitary flowered inflorescence with a long-lived, tiny, fragrant flower that blooms at any time of the year on new leaves and most often more than one. Cuttings can be made of side branches as they will root out quickly if potted in a standard bark mix with high humidity and fairly heavy shade. I got this mounted on cork bark and didn’t mess with it. I spray it every morning and just let it grow and expand into a large specimen to create spectacular blooms all year round…this is near the humidifier and the heater for the winter and will go out the fire escape in the hot and humid summers of Manhattan.
