L. anceps never actually has a sheath as a Cattleya. It flowers by putting up a lengthy spike with flowers at the end. If this has buds only come out of a sheath then it isn't a pure L. anceps, it...

The advice you heard is very correct. Repotting is very tricky when plant is young, doesn't not like disturbance. I nearly lost this plant 2 or 3 times because of it. Probably best to Over pot a...

11 years ago, I can remember if this was my Catt pic or not, I think it was but the colour is all washed out. The whole flower was a good, deep chartreuse. As it should be.

Oldie but I like it. Not my best flowering of the plant & something decided to nibble a bud.

Angraecum leonis

I think this is my best flowering of this plant ever.
Didn't win anything major except the Best on Display at a recent show.
