Aerangis luteoalba var Rhodosticta

[Trithor]

A pleasing mini, easy to grow and always a pleasant surprise when it flowers.

Nice flowering. I love the little orange noses.

Wonderful! I sure wish I hadn't killed mine.

I don't think these plants are easy to grow at all, but some people have the
knack. Obviously, you do Gary. Ever so pretty!

Thank you all !

 

[Ozpaph]

that's really lovely.
How do you grow it?

 

[Trithor]

I hang it from the underside of one of my hanging baskets, so I guess it gets the same light as my multis and complexes. It gets sprayed about every two days, and gets treated the same as all my plants. I can't claim to give any particular plant any special treatment (one of the reasons why I am convinced that I struggle with the brachys, perhaps they need their own treatment?)

Thanks for the photo of your lovely plant - inspiration for me.
This is one of my all-time favorite species. I also struggle to keep it happy. When I see one on a plant list for a club order, I buy one. Now have 3 small plants, 2 growing, 1 declining. Maybe I just cant give them the warmer temperature.....

Tracey, I know that Canada gets way colder than us, but my temps do drop in the greenhouse to around 12 degrees most winter nights (about 3 months) with the occasional drop to 8 degrees and an absolute low of 4 degrees. Not warm growing by any standards.

Do you give it a dry rest when temps are cool?
