Geographical origin:
East and Central Africa, from East Senegal to
Epiphytic orchid from see level until 700m of
height.
This species grows on forest borders or in clear forest
(woodland), even on trees of plantation as coffee trees or trees inside village
areas.
Culture :
Temperate to warm, this
Aerangis can be grown potted, in an hanging basket, or mounted on a piece of
bark if you can give it enough humidity, as in a greenhouse for example.
It appreciate a not too strong light, a shady place
will be very good.
As its roots are fat and strong, it won't bear a too
humid substrate. If it is too wet, if you use too much sphagnum, the roots may
rot.
Its leaves must be dark green. If they are too
clear, it means that you give it too much light.
