Aeranthes arachnites (Aeranthes arachnites)
Description
Aeranthes grandiflora is a species of orchid and is the type species of its genus. It is native to Madagascar and Comoros.It is characterized by long, spindly, naturally hanging inflorescences and relatively large, semi-translucent flowers which open successively over a long period of time; do not cut the inflorescence after the first flower has faded, as these plants rebloom abundantly.Home culture for this species is among the easiest of any orchid; give them small pots of small-grade bark and moss with medium-warm temperatures (winter nights between 55 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit) and place them under low light of any orientation or even fluorescent lights.
