Today from this forum, I found out the name of an orchid I've have for two years with no name. It is an Aerangis Citrata. It is in spike now with many buds but not opened yet.

That's on my wish list. Looks like a beautiful plant. How do you grow yours?

I have it mounted on a cork board w/a little spag. This is the second time it's bloomed for me. Slow grower.

Cool, how did you finally find out? Or where? I know how good it feels to figure out a name!

Way to go, it's always
great to finally find closure
on a no-name

Attn CB977 - My aerangis is now in BLOOM! If you want to take a look go to "My Photos" as I have just posted a pic along with a couple of others.

Don, some specific questions. How do you keep yours moist? I plan to grow in a terrarium with misting. Thinks this will work? Does it have a smell? How much light do you give it?

My Aerangis hangs in a grnhse on lattaice, south side, so it gets good light. Mist every couple of days or so. Fert. once a week along with all my other orchids. No smell but cute pure wht flowers. I would think a terrarium would be okay.
