Oh, thats glorious!!

Thanks Joy it just blows my mind that it is blooming like that. I really enjoy these plants; I only grow them now no other orchids.

My Neos are full of new growth, spikes, roots, leaves galore.
 

It is no wonder why your Manjushage is highly appreciated and desired. I'm glad you are taking photos and sharing them here so we can all enjoy your Neo. This is still an elusive plant for me. I'm just going to have to clear some credit lines and acquire a Manjushage.

You remember this is the one I got last year & the Post Office had really beat up the box & knocked the plant out of the pot. I totally repotted it & was really complaining. Then that Neo blooms like this so easily. It obviously was a strong plant from JO. You'll get one soon Matt :)

That's just an amazing plant Ginger! It must really enjoy your care if it rewards u with such a bloom. They have something beautiful and spider-like in them.... and I mean this in the most positive way since I am really not so fond of spiders :p

greetz,

I know spiders.....ugh! Aren't these guys called flying cranes by the Japanese I think I read that somewhere. Let's think cranes :lol:

These beautiful blooms are a mystery I can't believe I had anything to do with it you know what I mean. It is in the plant.

You win the Manjushage blooming race between us, Ginger! It's lovely and rewarded your care with these blooms. Can't wait to see them fully open.

P.S. My spike is still sitting next to its tsuke.
