This is the adult from a friend. Any help greatly appreciated. It's close to a metre wide. A Neo of some sort.

Hi everyone.

Fern Freak - It's a bit hard to positively ID a Neo. from a photograph. as the colours in the plant vary depending on how much light they receive, also photographs aren't the most reliable as far as colour goes either as some cameras favour and embellish some colours, especially in the red range.

Having said all of that, I think your plant could be Neo. Rosy Morn or one of its hybrids.

If you look it up on the FCBS Photo Index at: http://www.fcbs.org/pictures.htm you will see just how variable it is colourwise.

There is also a picture on the BCR but just the one; whereas the FCBS site shows three different plants and they are all different colours.

All the best, Nev.

Wow, sorry Nev I've only just seen this post again. You were right on the money. I took it to the brom society meeting and before I had a chance to ask what it was, 6 people said Rosy Morn. Your smarter than the average bear boo boo. Thanks mate.
