Angcm. Veitchii (Angcm. superbum x sesquipedale)

The King of Angraecoids

Experience the breathtaking elegance of a true orchid masterpiece. Angraecum Veitchii is a premier primary hybrid, crossing the massive Angcm. superbum with the legendary "Darwin’s Orchid," Angcm. sesquipedale.

The result is a powerhouse plant known for its architectural silhouette, thick leathery leaves, and stunningly large, star-shaped flowers. The blooms emerge in a waxy, ivory-white to mint-green hue, featuring the iconic long nectar spur that makes this genus world-famous.

Why You’ll Love It

-Moonlight Fragrance: As night falls, these blooms release a heavy, intoxicating jasmine-like scent that fills an entire room.

-Commanding Presence: This is a "statement orchid." Its fan-shaped growth habit remains attractive even when the plant isn't in bloom.

-Longevity: The waxy, heavy-substance flowers are incredibly durable, often lasting 4–6 weeks in pristine condition.

Quick Care Guide

To keep your Angraecum Veitchii thriving, provide it with bright, indirect light, such as an east-facing window or a shaded southern exposure. It flourishes in intermediate to warm temperatures between 65°F and 85°F and appreciates a humidity level of 50% to 70%, making it a great candidate for a greenhouse or a room with a humidifier. For watering, wait until the potting medium is approaching dryness before watering thoroughly, and try to avoid disturbing the roots whenever possible to prevent transplant shock.
