If you go on facebook, there are two very good quality groups dedicated to Neos. One is called Neofinetia International with many experienced growers from around the world including several English speaking Japanese and Korean growers. The other is called Neofinetia falcata, which Matt is the administrator for. Combined, they are the absolute best sources of information about Neos in english anywhere. Pretty much any question you have about neos, regarding culture, variety information, history, etc. can be asked in those groups for an almost immediate answer.

Thanks for the information about the label! At least one of my plants is from that grower, I'll know more when I see the labels this evening.

I know about Matt's Facebook group and the International page, that's how I found out about importer/grower near Amsterdam! But I do miss him here, it's a much cosier atmosphere than a Facebook page.

Thank you Hakumin for the tag identification. It is nice to have an expert on the forum, you have been a huge help to me. It seems the Neofinetia growers have moved away from OB and we miss them.

The enthusiasm of growers on this forum, at one time, was unbelievable and I throughly enjoy reading old posts. The long thread on buying Neofinetia on EBay is very enjoyable to read through! Facebook, while helpful is not the same experience as Camille has stated.

Thank you for hanging with us!
