Neo. fuji-nishiki

Came to me in low spike. Aroma is amazing even at just one flower.

Nice. Interesting variegation on some of the leaves.

 

[Lanmark]

Nice!

Yes that variegated foliage is very attractive.

Thanks for all the warm comments. The first set of photos is at night. I will try to take one during the day. He are some photos of the plant while it was at low spike.

It is an interesting plant. Variegation is consistent on each individual growth. However, there is no uniformity in variegation between different growths on the same plant. Here are some photos of the plant when it was in low spike.

Nice blooming, Marco!

All the incentive of getting more! :evil:

Eric - that is false space. I cleared out the area just to take that photo

Eric - actually there are two more neos that are coming within the next few days. I have not told Maria about it she will not be very happy. And I don't know where they will be going.

Cute.
I am still in search of a nicely patterned tiger leaf variety, but I can wait.

I've been experimenting with different lenses gathering dust at my parents place. Typically I've used a micro or 35MM this is under an 85MM manual. I think I will be using this one moving forward.The only downside with the 85mm manual is it is metal unlike the newer ones with computer chips which are made of plastic and are significantly lighter.

I like these with their out-of-focus backgrounds, Marcus.

Neos are among the best of all orchids!

Nicely grown and flowered Marco. Not a cheap variety even here.
