Looks like the right thing, although the lip is rather broad......
Seldom seen in Europe!
 
A great miniature species to have in any collection! Easy to grow and bloom also. Very nice!
 
I would recommend temperate culture with a slight dormant period in winter: slightly drier and with cool to cold nights. Easier mounted than in a pot......

Thanks Herbert,
I certainly agree with mounting vs pot culture. Most of my
Angraecum style plants are mounted. I used this photo as the plant was a new arrival and nicely showed flower / plant size. Also a lot of people are either afraid or unable to mount.
 
@temperature, My plants grew fine under intermediate conditions (55-80F). mounted or in a pot with coarse mix... Good air movement.
 
Thank you for the photo tomp. I once bloomed a punctata and then it promptly died. I haven't tried another for
fear of killing it. It is very cute!
Ang. elephantinum is a lot easier than Aerangis punctata.
