Angraecum Crestwood

Entered in a show this weekend and got a first prize. This is an easy plant to grow if you have the space. Flowers religiously every January. I only got 4 spikes this year probably due to a repot this past spring. Night fragrant.

Not a good picture, taken with my phone as the club was setting up the display. The plant is large and heavy and was quite a feat getting it to the top of the display. I thought for sure, it was going to topple. I think having the light fixture right above it, did in the flowers. Usually flowers for a good month. But some seem to be fading already. Probably the light.

    BTW, I did get best in show on this. Very odd because they flowers were starting to fade. Had been in bloom for a month. Judges love these plants. I have to try to get it to bloom earlier. In NY it always spiked in September and bloomed around Christmas. In Florida its a month later, probably due to the warm winter. I believe this plant is similar to Phals in that the temp drop starts the spikes. Not sure how to handle it. Thinking I might bring it inside to AC in early September. Not an easy task.

    I don't have a cold greenhouse (Nick), but am determined to get this to start spiking a month earlier. Most of the big shows are in late Dec and January. I squeaked by this year. I need to get it spiking earlier.
