Aerangis biloba
The flowers are past their prime, but I left a month ago with it just in bud, and came back last night to see that it still looked pretty good so I had to take some photos. The story behind this common aerangis is that it had been purchased a few years ago (out of bloom) primarily for the aer. biloba x distincta pod it was carrying. The pod unfortunately was empty, but I was pleased by the cute diminutive star shaped form of the flowers. My previous biloba was not as nice. I had 5 spikes this year.

Wow, it certainly put on a fantastic show! I'm glad you didn't totally miss out on it.
