Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Aerangis pulchella in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Aerangis pulchella
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Aerangis pulchella after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

More! New! Babies!!! the stork just brought me these from Ecuagenera: 1: Aerangis hyaloides - my first micro/mini orchid 😰 I’m nervous about caring for this one so if anyone has experience with micro/mini orchids of this variety, please do share! 2: Alocasia ‘Polly’ - my only other alocasia is a black velvet & it’s grown very well for me, but I’ve heard the ‘Polly’ is a little finicky so any care tips are appreciated! 3: Philodendron ‘Birkin’ - can someone tell me what is going on with this? Is that a bloom in the center or is it just how they grow out new leaves??? #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #NewPlants #OrchidLovers #OrchidOrg #PlantAddict #AlocasiaAddicts #AlocasiaAmazonica #PhiloFlock #OasisMely
