Not to digress too much from this thread, but I was wondering how large plants of this genus must get before flowering? I have a Angraecum eburneum v. giryamae that is in a 2 1/2" pot so rather small.

Ed, good to see that the flower got even prettier after it had been open for a few days.
Howard, the larger angraecums don't have to get to be huge before they will bloom. Angraecum sesquipedale is an especially good choice to grow since it will flower at a relatively small size (say, around a foot tall and wide, and possibly at an even smaller size). Your eburneum will put on quite a bit of growth if you provide it with lots of heat, bright (indirect) light, water and fertilizer during the spring/summer growing season (treat it like a cymbidium as far as its water and fertilizer needs go).
