Here are some monster Neos from this Commercial Nursery we visited in Salinas, CA. I didn't bother to asked if they are for sale because I know I couldn't afford them anyway.

Enjoy,

Yep, it was definitely an amazing experience. I was drooling the entire time. That particular nursery have about 9 huge greenhouses (maybe more) all filled with different kinds of orchid; cymbidiums, catts, maxillarias, paphs, neos, you name it they have it. Some of their plants are the owners collection. There are also some other growers that are just leasing from them.

We also went to Matsui Nursery but their greenhouses are not open to the public, they just have a show room and most of what they sell are NOIDS, like the ones you can buy from the grocery or big box stores.

Very cool pictures! Mind sharing what the name of the nursery is just incase any of us ever make it that way? I would love to check a place out like that someday!

It's called Bay Breeze Greenhouse, unfortunately they do not have a website :(.
