    You probably know it as filicornu.... I hope the taxonomists can do something about the fact that there is no mf'ing "u" in the name. It has a surfeit of all the other vowels. C'mon, how hard can it be???

    Such a beautiful species! Did this one come from Malala?

    (Stop picking on the taxonomists!)

    Very nice...are all these angs you're posting blooming at the same time?! Mine seems to have a bit of a different growth habit - smaller leaves and many leaves, rather than compact. I wonder if it's too much light or too little light. How much do you give yours?

    All at the same time and I believe my plant *did* come from Malala. It is in deep shade. I like the genus quite a bit.
