Hi OrchidFever,
I'm a fellow neo nut. Just love 'em. Re variegation, to the best of my knowledge, it's a genetic mutation. Some variegation reliably reproduces but I would say, from my experience,...

re Canadian neos

I think Jason (Orchids Ltd.) is bringing some plants to Winnipeg maybe in April. You could probably order from him.

Brian,
Nice photos! I'm a fellow neo-nut in St. Paul and also have to be very careful out at Orchids Ltd. I know Jason didn't bring many neos to the Show because of the limited audience they...

The spike itself looks fresh, as do the blooms, so I'm wondering if it is a characteristic of the plant and that "rainbow" in the name reflects that. In that case, maybe "chameleon" would be more...

re your Neo cross

Oh, I didn't realize it was a Neo cross. I have that cross also and it's blooming beautifully now. The one I have is really a nice, deep purple and I love it. Anyway, I don't rest my Neo/vanda...

re keeping Neos dry in winter

Good luck, Becca. I don't have an answer re the leaf drop. How do the roots look? That should be your clue re water. Do they "green up" after you water like with your other orchids?

Tracy really...

re keeping Neos dry in winter

Hi Becca,
I do let them get crunchy dry in the winter, only giving them a decent spritz of unfertilized water once a week. Strictly speaking you don't have to rest them, but the concensus seems to...

I've only grown Neos for around 5 years, but I find best success growing them pretty much as Jim does. The main difference would be that my winter windowsill for Neos is South-facing and, they're...

All the different root tip colors really add to the beauty of the plants, don't they? I grow most of my Neos at a South window, so the new roots are just at the cusp of breaking out (as opposed to...

Thought I had you pegged. I so remember your bright smile!

I much prefer the 5A sphag. I use 4A also for "the underpinings" and do my outer wrap with 5A. That way I can make it last longer. Let's...

I didn't think the books Jason sells had the names in English. The one you got from Glenn—it has English names? Lots of pictures? I'd love to see the catalog you mentioned. I'll see what I can find...

I hope it's ok if I jump in here. Question—where do you Neo-Nuts (I say that affectionately especially since I'm one too) generally find pictures of some of these more exotic Neos? I always check out...

Hi Naoki,
Thank you for the help—I printed it out. I also dug out the vowel list that Jason had given me a long time ago and I'd long forgotten I had. I'm laughing at myself—I go looking for a...

Good to hear from you. Do you go to the OSM meetings? Funny thing—I had my eye on the sword leaf Neo that Jason had (Jerry told me about it at the Winter Carnival show) but it was sold before...

Neo pronunciation guide

Hi,
I've been lurking around this forum for a while and this is my first posting. Like the rest of you, I'm a Neo Nut. I'm wondering if anyone other than me has ever looked for any sort of "guide to...
