Sorry Bob. Unfortunately, no more pictures.

I wish I could have splurged on the Mangetsu. But it'll be a little while before I reach that point in my Neo addiction. It was $1,000.

Cheers.

WOWZERS! maybe if we all pitched in, we could setup a timeshare with it!

There is another Mangetsu on their website for $500....is that enabling?

Did you get anything from Glenn this year, Jim?

Jim, that is a beautiful plant with the yellow striping...Is the Amanogawa leaves dappled with white tiger stripes? I am awaiting summer blooms and fragrance....very exciting!

Sonya ! you have a great haul...a beantype variety is cool...and you have buds...I will be looking forward to pictures of your Neo flowers

[Neodex]

Jim cracking plants ! Those white tigers are very interesting when viewed with a bit of morning sun shining through the leaves (although they are apparently sensitive to direct sun ?). I especially like your Rain-no-hikari, very nice plant. I've recently become very interested in variegated types after initially being a bit indifferent. That Mangetsu is really great, but I also feel that $1000 is a lot for a plant.

You're so bad Tracy! $500 would be very enabling but I think I've done enough damage to my hobby account for the year.

Unfortunately no. I haven't gotten anything from Glenn this year and I do feel bad about it. I like him and his plants. It's just that Satomi has been here and when you see her plants in person, well, things happen.

I'll probably try and get some Sophronitis from him later this year.

Oh! That reminds me! I showed her the Meikan Glenn translated for me and I was explaining how I was trying to put it into an Excel spreadsheet, and she gave me a 2012 Meikan! There are new additions and some have been moved because of their popularity. I need to find a way to scan it. Unless someone has the latest version of Photo Shop. Then I can send some pictures and PS will just line them up and stitch them together and create a single seamless image.

Cheers.

Bud;

Yes, It's like an over-sized version of my Homeiden. It is very exciting. Thanks!

Cheers.
