Thanks everybody.
Tracy - My brother gave me the 'Yamahoko' as a gift. It's been doing very good. Maybe we can swap some things later on if yours doesn't make it. Thanks for liking my mound. I have over 30 Neos now, so I hope I'm good at it. In fact, Jason was busy when I was first inquiring about a tutorial, so he linked me to your youtube video. Thanks for putting that out there. I have been using the 4A to make the initial mound and clean it up with the 5A on the outside to conserve it. The club up here had me do a demo on mounding and I did a few members' plants that bought some when Jason did a neo talk a few years ago. They really needed to be repotted, but no one knew how to do it.
Haven't placed any orders. I think Jason knows what I like by now. Somehow I naturally gravitate to all the expensive Neos without knowing beforehand the value. A good example would be 'Ooemaru No Shima'. I knew from when I first saw that plant that it was on another level of awesome. Then Jason tells me its $1200. I seem to have the same eye for coral too. Even my buddy who owned Cosmic Aquatics said I had good/expensive taste and I was just starting reefing. Last I was there though, I spotted 'Beni Ougi' and 'Tensei No Mai' that I will probably have to have. Jason really wants me to come down in my '91 Mitsubishi Galant VR-4 (#1899/2000) limited production car. He's a car guy too, so that's why we click pretty good. He had a limited production car too. Mazda 626 turbo. Can't remember the year, but it's like my car.

. Are you on facebook? If so, you should check out a page called Japanese Neofinetia Orchid. This grower has a really cool one called 'Taimatsu'. Contorted, bean leaf. I heart that plant and must find one.
