[OGD] Arachnis flos-aeris

2006-10-16 Thread P G Hieke
Even here in sunny Cape Town my plant had to grow to 2 mtrs. tall to flower for the first time. It grows in full sun under clear polycarbon the whole year round and flowers mostly in winter/spring. Temperature is probably not so important, but full sun. Peter Hieke Bloubergstrand

Has anyone in Europe managed to flower A. flos aeris? Mine is becoming disagreeably large, and does nothing except grow and grow. SE Asians seem to grow them in full tropical sum, and perhaps that is the problem. __ Oliver Sparrow +44 (0)20 7736 9716 www.chforum.org
