Default A Hawaiian Christmas Tree
This Angraecum distichum is blooming just in time for Christmas. It resembles a Christmas tree lighted up in white. The plant is 12 inches tall and about 10 inches wide. The flowers are very small measuring 3/8 inches across. The plant is grown on a slab of cork bark. The plant is several years old and still growing.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Great growing.

That's FANTASTIC!!!! I love it. I have a very small one, which I have brought into bloom once. I really treasure it and I just enjoy the plant even when it is not in bloom. It looks so graceful.
