Description
Commonly known as the 'Gigantic Angraecum’ based on how large its flower is relative to the size of the orchid.

This epiphytic species is native to Madagascar where it blooms in the fall to winter season with nocturnally fragrant flowers. Grows well in bark and charcoal mixes, or sphagnum moss in unglazed clay pots. This also makes for a fantastic slab plant.

These orchids like being watered & fertilized thoroughly during the growing period, with time left to dry between watering. In the late winter to early spring, these hardy epiphytes require a reduction in watering frequency, however, if leaves begin to show signs of shriveling, adjust watering frequency up incrementally to remedy this. The balance is easy to find and the reward is a fantastically large and fragrant flower!
