    Default Podangis dactyloceras with translucent white flowers

    This is an African species with fan shaped growth habit and translucent white flowers. I grow it in medium light intermediate temps. It needs to dry between watering. I have it stick mounted.

    Those blooms are really thin. Do they last very long?
