I got my first Neo!

Thanks to Gwen, I got a typical form Neo. Woo hoo! I am so psyched!

I think I might even have a start of either a spike or a new shoot. Just to the left of centre on the 3rd pic...

Woohoo! Nice, Jim! Did Gweniran send this to you along with the pots?

DelawareJim · #3 08-28-2008, 11:28 PM

Yes she did. I was stunned.

Cheers.

Doing a little happy dance. . .

Neos rock- It's hard to tell from your pic if it's new growth or a spike. I hope it's a spike for your sake- They're heavenly scented!

Yippee!! Congrats, Jim!! I am sure you will love this plant - and I sure hope that is a spike, so you can smell that delicious fragrance.

Gwen, you are awesome!

Gwen-sama;

I am loving these more and more each time someone posts a new pic.

They are rapidly becoming my favourite species.

Cheers.

la la la la la. . .I believe, my work here is done.

Took new pics this morning. Roots galore and what I think is a new growth is a little larger but still not identifiable.

New shoot or will it be flowers?

Cheers.
Jim

Jim, when the growth is that far down on the axis, it's most likely a new fan. But hey....new spikes, roots, fans....

Isss aaaawww good bro!
