Neo Higashi de Mijako ready to Bloom!

[Ranchnanny]

Well I tried to find my last post regarding one of my Neo's that is getting ready to bloom but couldn't find it. So I am posting again with a new photo of it. The two flowers are so fragile looking but are growing very fast. I am also posting a photo of the same Neo when I first saw the spikes. This is so exciting since I have never had a Neo bloom for me.
I purchased this Neo from Asiatica Nursery in Sept. of 2008 and have had it in my Orchidarium since then. I have two others that are doing well with lots of new roots and growth.
There are two photo's one in its early stages of putting out its first spike.

Thanks - Sheridan

great job. post the flowers when they open.

[Ranchnanny]

Okay folks my very first Neo has bloomed. Of the two flowers only one so far has opened. I am surprised that the flower itself is so small. Other Neo's I have seen have much bigger flowers.

Check it out. Comments welcomed.

Sorry the pictures are a bit blurry I am using the Macro on my digital camera. I need more practice.

Nice blooms! They grew and bloomed really quickly, I doesn't seem like all that long ago that you first posted pics of the buds. Keep practicing with the macro, I'm sure you'll get nice crisp pics very soon!
