Neos on Yahoo Auctions
Has anybody ever looked? I guess Yahoo is more popular than eBay auction-wise in Japan..? I don't even think Yahoo Auctions are around anymore in the US.
Anyway, I occasionally look and drool at all the listings they have.. some very interesting variations! Hope the link works.

I used to look but not anymore because there's always something there I want. At least on ebay, I can bid on certain ones. Thanks for the link.

I don't check Yahoo auctions, because most of them will not ship to the U.S.
Megan, I don't know how to pronounce the name of that variety, but it translates as "purple flame"

Oooo, there's some nice neos!! I came across this site a while back where I was drooling over Neos. There is so much diversity for just this one species! Who cares if I can't order any, window shopping is fun too!

Camille the links didn't go to any particular orchid for some reason...but I think I know what yellow leafed one your are talking about on that page.....I love the yellow leafed ones! Tracy keeps trying to get through my thick head that they are slow growers...but I don't care...lol.
This is an awsome site for just drooling over. I also enjoy drooling over everyone's photo's of their neo's on flicker!

BTW, I was just told by Naoki (mollycart1) that the neo Megan is asking about is called Shi'en in Japanese, meaning "purple flame" or "purple fire" like Kip said. Naoki also said the description states that 'Shi'en' is not the formally adopted name yet.
