Neofinetia falcata Nishide Miyako (西出都). My most reliable bloomer. I thought I posted this yesterday, but can't find the post.

:iagree: flowers look sweet too, almost dainty compared to leaves. Are they, or is it just that the leaves make them appear small.

they're small - about a half inch (1.2cm) across. most neos have flowers about this size, there's only a couple that have larger flowers.

I love these neos with pretty leaves! Since they spend ;ore time out of bloom than in bloom, it's nice to a have a plant that's pretty to look at. I used to have a variegated leaf neo, but it died when the person watching my orchids at x-mas forgot to water it.

Very nice plant, congratulations.

Camille sorry to hear you lost yours. Maybe you can get it replaced soon. I got an e-mail from Glenn saying he is off to England in about a week. Hopefully he'll be restocking Shannan.

Cheers.
Jim

I'm aware of his trip, but the problem is that I've spent quite a lot of money on orchids lately, and can't exactly afford more, especially Neos, which are a bit more expensive than the ochids I usually get. I haven't heard from Shannan in a very very long time, have you? She was supposed to send me a Neo Suikaden a few months ago.
