I was grateful and then he says that my carrier yelled at him right before he came down because she knows when I have a package its a plant and not to leave it on the steps in extreme cold or heat and just to leave me a note and I'll come up and get it. Well lets just say that its a good thing that it was the neo's. The had been in his truck all morning and its in the lower 40's here today. They are COLD. Being they are pretty temp tolerent Im hoping they'll be fine. Its been a long week and my nerves are frazzled, don't need to add orchid drama to it. Anyways, here is my picture contribution. One of them was supposed to be Amami Island, but the tag says Amami Furan, I don't know if its a mix up or just another name for the same plant. Either way, Im happy. Its HUGE in comparison to the other one and the little one is the one I really wanted so no harm done.

Cowboi:
Furan is what Neofinetia is called in Japan (the traditional name at any rate...)
The Amami form is generally thought to be the larger "wild" form...
