Angraecum Crestwood 'tomorrows star'.
Looking forward to this bursting into flower. It started in spike last August so it's a long wait to see the results. I bought this around 5 years ago and it is still in the same pot/ compost. I've no idea about the compost it was potted into and I know if I try to repot it won't take kindly to it. The second growth you can see at the bottom is of much darker and glossy colour. There are roots everywhere standing over a foot out in front and the same behind.

Okay, quoted from angraecum blog spot....Angraecum Crestwood is a multi crossed hybrid. Starting with an Angcm. sesquipedale and crossing it with an Angcm. eburneum; coming up with Angraecum Veitchii.
Take the Angcm. Veitchii and cross it with Angraecum sesquipedale again. You end up with Angraecum Crestwood.
