neo. shutennou

[Marco]

I purchased this one was from Robert Bedard around June 2015. I don't think he's been here in a quite while. This neo has almost doubled in size since 2015 and is my largest neo.

Not the best blooming this year but the blooms are large and more spikes are on the way. The dime in the last photo is for size comparison. The dime is towards the center of the pot. The blooms are slightly in front of the dime.

From June 2015

Beautifully grown plant. Does this one have the lovely
Neo. fragrance?

Omg! So well-grown! I've never seen one in bloom. I wonder how good they smell!

Nicely grown Marco. With all those growths it should be a stunner in full flower.

I regret buying an expensive division from Orchid Limited last year.
I could have spent less for something this big in Asia.
Oh, well...

Looks nice and lush!
