The species is well known for its perfumed flowers.
I grow it bare roots and it does well in my growing area all year round.

That is so pretty. I LOVE the colors in it.

I have become interested in Angreacum and related orchids. I will try to find one of these, if i can, because I like this one a lot. I have looked before and couldn't find one.

How large does it grow?

No kidding it does good in Taiwan? LOL I bet most orchids or vandas LOVE Taiwan. That really is beautiful. Are you growing it in a greenhouse? Outside? shade/light?

It will grow into a large plant and
my plant is about 2 feet tall.


I have no greenhouse and all my orchids are grown hanging in my yard. Since I am in the subtropical area of this island, it sometimes becomes so cold in winter that I seldom keep orchids such as phalaenopsis, angraecum or some vandas that dislike low temperature in winter.


Most species aerides do well here because the weather here is quite similar to that in their habitat. The photos here show some of orchids in my yard. In summer, they are under the tress or 50 % shade.

Looks like you have some very nice looking orchids. I wish I were in a more temperate area where I could grow outside year around.
