Brook -- Very nice Neos you have. I love the short footed pot. Is it glazed or unglazed?

Viv -- I don't think you can overwater a Neo, as long as you wait until the sphag is a little dry/crunchy. Plus, if you pot it traditionally, the sphag dries out a little faster.

When I check when it's time to water, I touch the top mound and the cavity (by putting my pinky inside)...that is if you have a hole in the bottom large enough to fit your pinky in.

By the way, my Neo. falcata 'Yodonamatsu' has a flower spike! I can hardly wait for it to bloom!
