Aerangis biloba flowering

It looks like the flowers on the left spike are deformed (Dorsal Sepal is veering off to the right) but the longer spike with 8 buds looks good. Hopefully the malformed spike won't be indicative of similar problems in the future.

Just finished opening over night so I haven't gotten a chance to check if it's fragrant and obviously it still has a lot of buds that need to open but I'm pretty excited about it.

Very nice Andrew. My biloba shows no signs of flowering but my rhodastica is in blossom and the citrana is just starting to spike. Isn't it funny how the blossoms open out of sequence?

It's gorgeous, I love the delicate look of the flowers.

Thanks. About half the flowers are open now. I could detect a light floral fragrance this morning (but a little off...). I've moved lights out early in the evening to encourage it to start producing fragrance earlier at night. Many flowers change not only intensity of fragrance but also character so I'm interested in what early/mid/late night would be like...

You've given me new reason to root for my biloba to blossom. Lovely flowers!

Very nice. Now I want one for myself.
