Default Angraecum sesquipedale question

Yipeeeee! Today, I discovered that mine is now in spike for the very first
time, not one but with two spikes and I'm so excited. It was a small
seedling bought two years ago from Carter & Holmes. I can hardly wait for
the fragrance and the star shaped flower with the foot long tube!

I thought that they only bloomed around Christmas time, is mine all
confused? I'm confused.

Thanks!

Peter

Hi Peter!

Good show on the sesquipedale. Sounds like you got it to blooming size in very
good time.

I have heard the Christmas reference too, but in my experience these plants
tend to bloom closer to Easter- so yours is right on time.

Take care,

Tom.

I have one that blooms in Early Winter and Late Spring, both.

Thanks!

I just found out that mine is the 'March' variety and blooms in or around
March.

Great news, Pete!

I have one that I got last year as a division of a specimen plant, and it's
easily blooming size now. Hoping for the same good fortune here.
