Is yours fragrant? I remember mine very nicely scented.

I now have a substitute which is a cross between neo and this plant, and it is very small but it has four fans. I think I see a spike coming, but it could be just another fan. lol
I would love to see what the flowers will look like.

congrats on your reward after all these years!
You are very patient. haha

Thanks :)

This had a tiny spike when I got it, and I remember a subtle fragrance then, but haven't detected a fragrance this year or last - but need to check latet in the day, perhaps?

Hope your similar one is spiking!

I am generally very patient with my orchids - if they don't bloom, I figure the fault lies with me, and the longer they go without blooming, the more determined I become! Ha! It's so rewarding when (if) they finally bloom! I have a couple right now that I have had sometime without blooming with their first ever spikes for me! One I've had for 5 years, the other for 4! :D

Beautiful form!

Glad you have found the right culture for your climate.
Probably that is the key, aside from buying healthy plants.
I have lost a few Neos and its hybrids in the past. Now, back in the N. East with central heating, low humidity in the house, I have healthy blooms developing on Neo hybrids in S/H. The new roots also look as healthy as I have yet seen.

Thank you :)

I'm happy mine didn't die - drowning it as I was :p. It was in very poor shape, but responded well and quickly to better care.

Sweet! One of mine is spiking and the two others seem to be watching to see how to do it.;) I hope they space it out so I have one in bloom as the others fade.

Thanks :)

I look forward to seeing yours!

I know how you feel - nice when they space out the blooming a bit!
