Neofinetia falcata (Project 6b - Spring 2008)

[shakkai]

Not a lot Becca. If people want to order their Neo from the same place as the project plant - place the order!!

If anyone wants to order one or both from New World Orchids, we need to know how many people want to do that so we can go back to them and see what they can offer us.

So far, I've only got three confirmed people who want to go the NWO route.

Hi guys! I'm thinking I want to order from NWO but I think I need some help! Being a Neo newbie I'm not sure what i should be looking for. For instance, how many growths should I be looking for? If anyone can give me any suggestions on what I should get that would be GREAT! I'm looking for something other than white if possible that would be small enough (do they all stay small?) to go under my lights. I'm going to keep looking but would love some ideas. Sorry for being dumb about this but I've never had one before as you all know, and I don't know much about them!

Paul, nothing is confirmed, but there is a good chance I think if we have enough people.

Well I think I would like to order from NWO as well, but I was kind of hoping to see some pictures of the different leaves on the Sedirea japonica's they have....I have one already, and the way NWO decsribes one (almost round leaves) it sounds like what I have. Do you think they would be willing to provide some pictures of Sedirea's and Neo's upon request?

Sarah, This is one of the great things about New World Orchids... based on Gwen's experience, they are very helpful with suggesting good ones based on their knowledge. I'm sure you can get some great suggestions from people here too!

Becca, I don't see why they wouldn't... after all its an important feature of the plants they're selling. It would actually be quite nice if they could post the photos here, so that we could all see them!

Thanks Shannan for that advice! Does anyone know what you are getting yet?

[camille1585]

I'll participate if NWO has some decently priced Neos or if I can locate a cheap one in France. If NWO or Shannan can ship it from the show in the UK, then the exchange rate is in my favor!

[shakkai]

Camille, if you look through their list, they have some that are €13.00 for two mature growths, or €19.00 for three growth plants. Which doesn't seem like a bad price.

The note on their web site says:

We can ship from England to anywhere in Europe!

$100 US Minimum order for shipping. No minimum for bringing plants to the show. Please place your order by June 1!

If those in Europe want to order together, let me know as I am going to the show to pick up in any case.
