Default Bud Blast on Ang. Leonis??

Don't know if this is the problem or not, but mine stays a bit warmer at
night and does not loose buds; about 65 to 68. It was just in bloom on
three spikes and had several flowers per spike. If I allow it to get too
dry while buds and spikes are growing I see that it gets 'impacted' buds, so
i make sure it does not dry out during this period. It is planted in an
open basket so it tends to dry to where it needs water a few times a week.

Good luck with it, it is a beautiful flower when it makes it that far. :-)

Hi Everyone,

I acquired an Angraecum Leonis back in August. I was so excited when
in October it put out two spikes. However, in the past few weeks each
of the unopened flower buds started turning brown on the tails and
yellow on the bud. Any ideas?

It gets lots of light in my gh. Daytime temps range between 70-85
daytime. Lowest nightime temps at 57-60, as it sits on a higher
shelf. It's in large bark and gets watered about once a week, feeding
weakly weekly with flushing once a month.

Thanks,
Lori
