Latest Neofinetia buys
Greeny Pottery put up some Aojiku Fugaku (Cheongchukbuak) and Sengaku (Cheomak) for sale and I recieved a standard Fugaku (Buak) as a gift. That really made my day
Most of my beanies are regular symetrical growers like Ootakumaru and Ryokuhou (which doesn't want to flower)and I wanted one that grows with leaves of different sizes ... the mountain tsuke is a bonus (although as Jim commented on another thread this is difficult to explain to anyone who hasn't "crossed over ")

Great new acquisitions! I just ordered one from NWO called Momoyamanishiki. I'm going to the post office to pick it up this morning. I really thought I was done for the year and REALLY wanted to be done for the year. But you know how that goes....

Nice ones!! Thanks to you I also ordered from Greeny Pottery, and my Aojiku Fugaku arrived on Saturday. I charged my camera batteries last night and will post a pic. Great plant, and I want more! As soon as my tax refund lands in my bank account, I'm getting more! Thanks for introducing me to a wonderful source of Neos in Europe. Here we go again, Neo addiction; Part II!

Very nice! Congrats to all of you who got some really nice plants.
I'm like Tracy, it's pretty hard to stop. It becomes an addiction. I'm starting to understand why the president of the All Japan Fukiran Society has 5 of the only 10 variegated Suikaden known.
It's an addiction I tell you!
Cheers.
Jim

Here is my Aojiku Fugaku. Though mine looks larger, I think yours is better because the variegation is much stronger.

very nice plants, both of you. Congrats for coming back to Neos Camille
I saw Greeny Pottery had some Houmeiden for sale last week, but I think he sold them all quickly!

Is Greeny Pottery the only source in Europe?? I thought Shannan was a European rep for Glenn.

Shannan has disappeared from the face of the earth, and her Neo page has not been updated in years. Ramon and I managed to track her down over a year ago via her orchid society, just to be sure she was ok. She had disappeared very abruptly.

So is she okay? I was wondering what happened to her. Like you said she disappeared very abruptly and has done nothing with her web page.
Cheers.

That's why we were concerned. All her internet activity (OB, 2 other forums, posting pics of flickr) stopped at the same time. Ramon and I were almost fearing the worst, which is why we tried to track her down (last fall actually). Ramon ended up emailing her orchid society I think, who passed on the email to her. She is ok, but was going through some major personal issues, and generally having a really rough time. All her hobbies ended up on the back burner, but it looks like she's not coming back...
