 Ross, I am so incredibly lucky - and I know it!
I am hoping though that documenting the varieties that I have here - and posting photos - will be informative for everyone.
(And of course, help those trying to decide on which variety to add to their collections next!  ) |

And for those reading this post, beware Shannon! She is probably the best enabler on this board!  I have several orchids as a result of the enabling (thank you Shannon, they were right for me. ) |

Thanks for the photos! I was really wondering what colored blooms fugaku has! Mine is a very happy little neo now, with new roots, growths and leaves appearing. Hopefully it will be big enough to bloom next year. I'm looking fowards to pictures of your other neos you listed on yuo variegated Neo thread!!
