Default Neo Suikaden

I got this one in Spring of '08. It was probably grown in low - moderate light in whatever greenhouse it was living in all these years in Japan. The leaves were all perfect and flawless but no remnants of old spikes. I've had it growing in higher light for over a year. Burned off a few leaves along the way but it really did it's thing this season so I'm happy.


Thanks for looking and happy Saturday

Tracy, very good-looking "Suikaden." Thank you for sharing. I really think mine is not going to make it.

It's beautiful, and sooooo many flowers. You sure did something right. I hope to post a pic of my new Neos tomorrow.

Congrats Tracy! Good growing!

It looks really healthy! I have one myself that only has two growths. Lots of roots but no flowers. Can you see any green coloration on the flowers?

A few of the blooms first opened with green tips, Anders. After a day or so, they changed to full white. I was never that obsessed with the colorful neo flowers until I saw a true division Hisui and Benitemgu. The green on Hisui was so vibrant and Benitemgu was a very deep purplish pink. They were not my plants though.
