Who grows Aerangis and Angraecum ?

[NeoNJ]

I don't see alot of postings here on the Orchid board from any growers of Aerangis and Angraecum (other than me).

I have a few that appear to be rather slow growers...
Aerangis Mystacidii isn't doing anything.....and my Angraecum distichum appears to also be a really slow grower, along with my Aerangis luteo-alba .....

All my other Angracoids seem to be growing all new roots ......

Let me hear what you're growing ........and how they're doing...

I only have an angraceum didieri, it's flowered once last year. It's put out new leaves & roots since I got it in August 2009. The flower did not last very long from what I remember - But I remember it having a Fab scent!

I have 2 Aerangis Modestas, they are still pretty small and haven't had any new growth with them since I have had them for the last month. Hope to see some soon!

I have aer. luteo-alba and it is a slow grower. The trick seems to be to water it with very pure water, it is very salts sensitive. It is a warm grower, low light (about 100-1500 fcs.), and excellent ventilation. I grow my angs./aerangis in a converted fish tank.
My aer. mystadicii gets a bit more light and is potted. It hasn't bloomed yet. I got it as a small seedling and almost lost it to rot, but now it is throwing out roots and new leaves. Check the Baker's site out for Culture Sheets on demand. They have some excellent info. that will help you with the other species as well. My aer. biloba id in the same tank, and so is my ang. didieri, and both are reliable bloomers. My ang. distichtum grows very well (for an ang. that is) and throws out blooms every couple of weeks - only 1 or 2 at a time, but I'll take it. I also have aer. hildebrandii, which I grow like the luteo-alba, and that one blooms 4-5 flower spikes at a time, with about 30 tiny flowers per inflorescence.
Hope this helps a bit.

I grow quite a few members of the Angraecoid alliance (Aerangis and Angraecum are the most common genera) outside under the shade of a tree in the summer and in a small make-shift greenhouse in the winter.

I'll try to remember all that I have currently:

Angraecum sesquepidale
Angraecum distichum
Angraecum dideri
Angraecum dendrobiopsis
Angraecum erectum

Aerangis biloba
Aerangis distincta
Aerangis arachnopus
Aerangis mystacidii

Sobennikoffia robusta
Sobennikoffia humbertiana
Eurychone rothschildiana
Cribbia confusa
Podangis dactyloceras
Rangaeris amaniensis
Oeoniella polystachys
Microterangis hariotiana
Mystacidium braybonae
Mystacidium capense
Cyrtorchis monteiroae
Campylocentrum ornithorrhynchum
Dendrophylax funalis

Hi!
I'm rather new to both of these groups. I have:
aerangis citata
angraecum didieri
angraecum leonis
angraecum magdalenae
angraecum sesquipedale

It was rather difficult not to order more once I got started but there is the space issue during the winter. So, all are doing very well in the new roots department but for the leonis. Leonis simply sits there, clearly unhappy. I'm hoping that this will change with the warmer weather. All are planted in what I hope are permanent arrangements as I don't want to have to repot them and disturb those famously fussy angraecum roots.

I actually just ordered my first! It's an Aerangis fastuosa (aka Angraecum fastuosum).

I have Angraecum sesquipedale since April.
It grew new fat root from the stem since I got it and I can see another little green bump on the other side.
The leaves didn't do much yet and actually the top one seems to be stuck folded in half.

To say I 'grow' them would be a bit misleading! I got my first (an angreacum didieri) about a month ago. There were quite a few of us who got them as TCs with the members' project so we started a little 'help' thread (http://www.orchidboard.com/community...m-didieri.html) I'm sure we'd all love to hear from you more experienced didieri growers if you fancy a look in

i Just bought my first Angraecum Dideri. so far it seems happy and is in spike. But the grower did all the work. I just hope i can make it happy.
