Neo. Falcata 'Amami Island x Mendenhall
Our only Neo., got from Carter and Holmes via the Kennedys in spring 2014. Plant now has 5 growths in a 2 3/4"netpot with a 3" slotted overpot potted in hydrocorn.
Spent a cool summer outside on our south facing 3rd floor balcony and when brought back in in Sept. and placed under 4 x 4' t5 HO lights I guess it thought it was spring time and started a spike.
Of the 4 buds that started only 2 have opened, nice 'vanilla' scent.
I also have a question someone more familiar with neos may be able to answer-this one has pink/purple on the dorsal sepal and petals and less purple/pink on lateral sepals- is there a name for this coloration? It also has pink root tips.
