Aerangis citrata Culture

Successful cultivation of the enchanting Aerangis citrata. Here are some important cultural tips to ensure its thriving growth:

• Light: Aerangis citrata thrives in bright, indirect light. Filtered sunlight or shade from other plants is ideal, as too much direct exposure can scorch its leaves.
• Temperature: To mimic its natural habitat, aim for daytime temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F) and cooler nights around 12-18°C (54-64°F).
• Humidity: Keep humidity levels high at 60-80% and consider using humidifiers or trays to achieve this.
• Watering: It is essential to keep the substrate consistently moist but not waterlogged. A well-draining mix like sphagnum moss or a blend of bark and perlite is recommended for optimum growth. Frequent misting can also be beneficial.
