There are several new and different Neofinetia up for auction on eBay ending today and going through to Monday, this SUIGAI 翠蓋 caught my eye. It is a bear leaf, its flowers are heaven facing and the flowers are pink.

Also a nice 2 growth Kinkujaku for anyone who doesn't already have one.
Another must have: Kokyu. A very nice clean, unblemished single growth one is on for tonight.
Several other particularly desirable Neos for bid over the next 3 nights. Which ones are drool worthy is left as an exercise for the reader. |

The Sederia japonica up first for auction is bid up to US$33.00. This is such a fragile plant.

Awesome offerings by Seed Engei. Btw Matt, the Suigai has white flowers with a tint of pink on spurs. I have a pic in the thread we discussed on how to post good pics on Blooms in Toronto. I would classify it as having white flowers. The Keigetsu variety is more pink

I purchased the Kokyu, I'm surprised people didn't care for it. I purchased it at such a low price. Wasn't expecting to win it at all. The fan was grown nicely and it has a little baby coming in. Leaves are nice and even, not grown crooked. Hard to find those.
Yay me!

Glad to hear it went to a good home. If I didn't already have one I almost certainly would have snatched it up.

Congratulations Jeremiah. SCORE! I love it when I bid on an item and I win it! You did get a good looking plant. Please post a picture when you get it. Isn't it about time you showed us your collection? I remember your thread from last year--you have such a lovely group of Neofinetia.

Yesterday, I received three emails from Satomi on their June list. She embedded links to pictures on Facebook or Flickr. The first email, there was somekind of error but very few plants had been sold. She then sent another email, correcting whatever problem was present in the first spread sheet, but about an hour later, she sent out a third email with a corrected list but updated each time with 'sold'. By the third email, most of the Neofineta that I would have bought were 'sold'! Even with problems, her customers really wanted to buy her Neofinetia.

Good thing Satomi does not export to Belgium. I would have gone bankrupt by now.
Over here There are practically no variety's available, hybrids yes, but I really want the species. Good thing Kirsten comes to Europe every year so I can get them from her and I hope she will be coming for a long time as my list keeps on growing, Lol.  |
