Keshoumaru is a great one! Got it earlier this spring at a show and it's already got 2 more growths coming in! Great haul!

I have passed stage A loooong ago !

B is never really an issue with Neos, just make shelves!

Lots of variegation there!!!!!! The minmaru shima is especially nice.

I am hoping so! I was debating between this one and Kara nishiki, we'll see

I like the Koganezuru. Nice variegation on that one.

Don't look now (or do look now), but Seed Engei (japaneseorchids) is up to 48 plants listed on ebay. There are auctions ending Mon, Tue and Wed nights.

I'm all tapped out right now. I just received a nice 3 growth Seikai (with a spike starting) from their regular online store.

This one:

Size of collection now 16, slow and steady with the acquisitions since my first 3 on April 14.

Jayfar, I know the feeling about "being tapped out". I knew about the bidding for today and tomorrow. I didn't see that they also have an auction for Wednesday too. I think they had a lot of left over plants from this past weekend. I'm going to check in...and see what they have. I wish they would post some plants available in their online direct website. I'm getting tired of raising my heart rate every time I see something I want and loosing out because I didn't bid high enough. (can you tell I'm playing the world's smallest violin?)

I am away at a huge Convention & I sat at a luncheon and put a bid in two of those orchids from my iPhone. Now I am really addicted

Ginger, yes I think you are addicted. I think on another thread, Ryan/Pilot your Neofinetia Potting Sensei expressed the same sentiment, how can these plants be so addictive?

I'm on a conference call listening with half an ear to these IT managers going on and on and on about the new WIN8 platform and trying to get code from MS to re-write some thing in the app....and I could care less!!!
