Default European growers/suppliers?

Dose anyone know if there are suppliers or growers of neos in Europe? My one supplier has limited numbers and limited choice although he is doing his best to increase his stock and range of prices. I'm not particularly looking for hard to find neos or rare ones but my small, limited collection looks like it's about to grow - fast!

Thank you, Lars, but that's my main supplier. I was wondering if there was another.

I was in a Neo craze at one point, and as far as I know of, not really. There's a shop in the south of france, but they don't do internet orders (last I checked was 1-2 years ago). There is, however, a very attractive option IMO. You must be familiar with at least the name of the US grower New World Orchids? Well every year (somewhere between june and august) they come to the UK for a show. You can preoder orchids and they'll mail them to you from the show on the condition that you ordered over $100 worth.

I got together with another OB member 3 years ago to do this, and had the plants sent to France. Wonderful plants!! Sadly I lost my Neo collection in a mail fiasco when they were on their way to Rosie's to be babysat while i was in the USA.

Well, if the exchange rate stays how it is, to reach the limit in $$ you'll actually only pay £60 or so!

I hope that they will be coming next year, I know that Glenn is going to stop making buying trips in Japan since he's getting on in years. Hopefully he'll still continue to go to shows outside of the USA! I've stopped looking at his catalogue, I just want to buy everything!!

Up until 2 years ago or so there was a NWO representative in the UK who would sell the plants that he hadn't sold at the show (to avoid paying for paperwork to take them back to the US) She was an OB member, but she has completely disappeared from OB and doesn't reply to emails either. I don't think that she's still selling Neos, her site hasn't been updated since 2009.
