I win just hearing from you Adrienne I always enjoy your posts. :). Two of the blooms opened today I will get a pic out when it is all done. That spike just busted out. All of my Neos are way ahead of time and only 5 out of the 41 don't have spikes. As opposed to last year when none gave me a single bloom. Lol

Aw, see how much your Neos love you, Ginger? You'll need to take a group shot of them all in bloom at the same time!

This is an excellent idea. I would enjoy seeing a photo or two (or more) of all your blooming Neos. Could you include your pots as well? But don't tax yourself--want to keep you mending!

Smile I can't do that. Only 4 are actually blooming now and the others are all at various stages of spiking from little beginners and there is no predicting when they will develop. I plan to post pics of them when they bloom but sadly no group shot. :blushing:

It is so refreshing to see those greens full of life!!! :)

I love the small one whose leaves are half green, half yellow. so cute!!!

What an incredible show!! I am drooling... Looks like spring started early for your Neos.
Just curious, what state/climate do you live in and what are your growing conditions? Many thanks.

Actually I am in Virginia in the USA and we have had a really cold snowy winter. Needless to say the Neos are all in doors under T-5 lights. They get light 12 hours a day, I also have a cheap humidifier & fan running. This is my first year using the lights so far I am very satisfied.

Here is a pic with the Manjushage fully opened.

Wow Ginger. Now I really want a Manjushage. This is lovely! Excellent photography too.

Absolutely gorgeous, Ginger. Great growing. Showing yours to mine for encouragement. :)
