Default Angraecum didieri

Another first bloom. I've had this one for nearly two years, and it finally decided to humor me. At first I had it mounted, but it just sulked, so it's been in a small net pot with a few pieces of bark for the last year. That seemed to do the trick: one big flower, two more buds behind it. No scent as of yet - possibly better at night?

Thanks for looking!

Thats beautiful. I have one, but all the buds blasted.
It's so nice to see one bloom.

These are great to be sure. Yes, flower is nocturnal. Be sure to check it out after lights out for an hour or so. Mine seem to love high humidity and high light the best.
