This was sent as a gift Neo. NEON PINK, it just knocked my socks off! Three flowers open right out of the box, 2 small pups coming on. It got some concentra and STRAWBERRY SUNDAE pollen, after I took its anthers and froze them.

    Who's the eBay seller? Nice to know good from bad.

    The one in the first two pics looks to be 'Midnight'.

    The seller is Shirleygk, her store is The Nature Collection. Her prices might be a bit high, but so is the quality. I purchased HANNIBAL LECTER from her awhile back, and was impressed with the pup she sent. She was on vacation when I purchased it, and had the notice up. I was surprised when she contacted me to let me know she would ship the following week. She answers questions quickly, and has been a pleasure to deal with. She also posts buyers feedback after they pay unlike many other sellers who will only post it after they recieve theirs, and only if it is favorable.

    I recieved this as NEO. TAKEMURA PRINCEPS, I'm pretty sure its Neo. FIREBALL, but it was cheap, and I haven't had it in awhile, so I still got a good deal.

    How large are the broms in photo's 1-4? I'm surprised Shirley didnt know what the plants names.

    Hi all,
    I'll have to agree,that Shirley provides top quality broms,and the costs are appropriate,as they are full grown plants..Pretty much as you'd find in a typical plant sales store. I've bought a few from her,and the service,packing,shipping,were all top notch,and I'll likely continue to shop there. Heres a pic of two recent buys that help show the size and quality.

    Of the three, in the center and on the left are the two that I got from Shirley recently.
    Vr.ospinae v.gruberi,[$20](left)...Pit.sanguinia[$23](ctr.)
    The one on the right is Vr.'Carlsbad',from BirdRock Trop.

    HDD, she purchased them as unknowns last weekend and sold them as such. They are large plants The dark one had a pup, and is about to flower, the other one looks like pups are starting to form near the base. I'll measure them when I have time.

    Bob, in her case you get what you pay for!

    John, I've tried to reach you a few times through the (faulty) GW email service. I suspect that you're heavy into the daylilies for a few weeks. But I wanted to let you know that you're welcome to come visit, and see my brom collection- should your travels take you to the metro Detroit area. You can access my email by way of my GW member page.
    Paul
