Not exactly sure into just what category this little guy should fit.This is a species that I've had since before 1990.It sends out 'fans' like a neo falcata.

It is scented but not strongly .After taking this pic I took it off the screen to check the scent & discovered more flowers open on the side plus 2 developing spikes.

What a cutie, Janie!

Orchidwiz has it (the only one of it's kind ) listed under Angraecums, Aerangis.

Now that is one awesome looking orchid. Its on my must have list now. They are under the tribe Vandeae (Vanda), subtribe Aerangidinae (Aerangis). Approx 15 species listed, confined to sub-Saharan Africa.
