Wow, that is a lot of waiting. Very nice job growing it. You must be very proud. Thank you for sharing this real beauty!

Gabriel, it's a beauty, but I don't think it's longicalcar. It looks very much like Angraecum Veitchii, however. Google a picture of longicalcar; it has very distinctive flowers--and an exceptionally long nectary (longer, in fact, than the flowers of Angraecum sesequipedale).

Steve, you are right I think. it looks more like Angraecum Veitchii.
Thanks for the info. I shall rename them.

Congratulations. Are you sure this is eburneum ssp. longicalcar though? It looks more like a hybrid between eburneum x sesquipedale. The flower shape does not look right, also the lower three petals and the spur should be green...

Lars,
you are right I think. it looks more like Angraecum Veitchii thats a cross between sesquipedale x eburneum.
