Nice growing!

Beautiful Neos! Your plants are very nice, and obviously healthy. I too purchase most of my Neos from Seed Engei and have always been very happy with their plants. It is a shame that the Beni Tengu is a mixup though still a beautiful plant.

I just love the blooms and their wonderful fragrance! Thanks for sharing your plants.

I don't have any special growing condition.
All my orchids :
Summer growing out door until the night temperature drop down to 40F. Fertilizer weekly with 1/4 tsp MSU. Keep the medium moist in summer.
Winter growing indoor. I water when the moss is dry out.
I just run out the MSU fertilizer this spring and still did not find any good price besides Ray. So this spring all my orchids only got KelpMax no MSU. But they are still bloomed.

I do what you do except that I haven't tried putting them outside. Afraid it may be too hot. MSU is part of my regime for all orchids but I need to try KelpMax as it sounds to be beneficial. TY

DeaC. Do not be concerned about being to hot for your plants outside. I live near Orlando, Fl. where we have 70's at night and 90's during the day and the Neo's and Neo hybrids seem to love it. I grow all of mine the same way the Vandas are grown.

I was concerned about bringing outside mostly because Seed Engei states The condition they like is airly and shady place.

Airy and shady can go along with hot and humid. The Japanese islands are hot and humid in the summer.
