We can go two ways with this:

a. get the larger one, enjoy the current bloom season...and then when that's done, your challenge starts.

OR

b. get the smaller one and the challenge starts upon arrival.

What size are the ones at NWO? Anybody know?

I just ordered the smaller one. Didn't really care if I was going to have to wait. Im patient

Ross...Isn't there an ultra-rare neo calling your name somewhere...

Ross, the Dark Side is strong within you! Don't fight it! Join us! Browse the Special Neofinetia list at NWO... or better yet, visit their greenhouse! I dare you!

Adam, you hear it calling out to Ross, too???

Ya know....I always did have a problem reading ALL OF THE INSTRUCTIONS BEORE REACTING....so as I'm on page 30 something of this post, I ordered my project plant from OHG and (I thought) ordered the wrong plant by getting the larger one... So I emailed them and asked them to please send me the smaller one...UGH!

Now, as I read THE REST OF THE STORY so-to-speak, I see that it really doesn't matter as most of the larger ones are in season....

I have the mental image of my mother smacking me upside the head (AGAIN!)

Good Grief Charlie Brown!!!

Hi ..Sue I'll be geting my Sedirea from Oak Hill, I'll either pick it up or maybe they'll bring it to the Ill. show for me. Thanks again for all the work you did on this project. Jim.

That's fine, Jim. Just let them know who you are at OB

Since everyone seems busy ordering, what travel companions is everybody getting to keep the Sedirea company in the box?? I'm curious!!

shakkai · #**338** 03-30-2008, 08:39 AM

Neofinetia, of course!!! They seem to just go together!

well, I ordered my sederia from Oak Hill. One of my other favs from the list was the Haraella retrocalla. So I picked that up. And a lot of the time when I place an order I pick up an orchid thats my "wild card". Something from a genus that I know nothing about. So for this order it was Isochilus linearis. We'll see how quick I can kill that off
