First bloom for me. Should be pink, but I don't think it's been getting enough light.
One slightly deformed flower, with one immature bud. This species has a very short spike - about 1/4 inch in this case. (you can't even see it in these pictures) The buds form very close to the plant. Then, when they're almost fully formed, a sudden burst of growth in the pedicel lifts them out into the open.
No fragrance that I can detect yet.
It's nice to have a neo that blooms a couple months before the others. Hopefully, it will bloom better when it gets bigger.
