I came across this Japanese photo website while searching for Neo. 'Komachimusume'

As well as this one from Tabbie's Garden. She is a Neophile as well. This is a plant I think would please a lot of us.

Hiya Jim

I looked through these 2 websites several months ago too. I' don't know if you had the time to look through all of Tabbie's posts but she's got some awesome neos as well.

Yes, I spent a fair amount of time reading through her posts and had fun watching her "Tips for purchasing a Neo" video on YouTube. She's got a collection most of us can only dream of. She is a true aficionado based on her descriptions of selecting plants based on it's tsuke among other factors. And apparently she knows Dr. Lehr rather well from her write-up of 'Manazuru'.

Definitely one I could learn much from.

Cheers.

Yep, the different tsukes and the root tip colors and the most interesting parts to me! Ones with the yamagata tsuke are a harder to find but not unattainable. They're harder to see in pictures but if you can see one in the flesh, I think you'll agree it's super cool! I have one with the yamagata tsuke and it's one of my favorites.

I've been to both of those websites! LOL

I check Tabbie's Garden everyday. . .I love the writing and the photos! She's got some terrific Neos!!!!!

I really enjoy the different tsukes and root tip colors too, just as much as the flowers!

They are both very nice sites, indeed!

This japanese blog contains alot of wonderful pictures of different Neofinetia plants: http://blog.goo.ne.jp/fuuranzannmai
Not many pictures of the flowers though. But its by far the largest Neo collection I have ever seen (just got new pictures up of it I see )

FengLan Index Contains more flower pictures

The FengLan site is so inspireing, I really injoyed the pictures of the Neo's mounted on the tall rocks,so much so I may go to my local block and brick supplier to see what I can find.
The Japanese just have a way when it comes to displaying their prized plants!

Hello

I am new and would like to share one japanese site •x‹M—––¼Ìƒ|[ƒ^ƒ‹ƒTƒCƒg
You probably knew that if you put the cusor over the picture you will see the name of the plant (plant name .jpg). Some have a number in front of the name just neglect it.

Thanks AG's site, it is a nice one.

I looked through this site a while back and I really like it too. 3 spurred, variegated 'Kinka' is so awesome.

AG & hksin,
Thanks for adding the links on here so more people can check out all the cool photos.

Also, WELCOME hksin!! Great to have you here with us!
