I thought that was from the London group. Thanks for finding it. Very
helpful. I still like to pick them in bloom. Although any of the
Neo. crosses carry a good shot of the sweet smell. Tonight I can not
remember the whole group.

They are no more expensive than any of the Ascda I buy.
Try Natt's in Naperville (south side of Chicago area)
http://www.nattsorchids.com/ Especially if you want them shipped.
If your in the area don't miss the ChicagoLand Festival in the End of
Sept. All the gh have open house. -- Sure today I don't see one Neo
Cross on the list. Send them a note if your looking for something.

Course you know that an 'EDIT' 'FIND' will snap to all the XS plants in
a snap! ;-))

I found one in Canada but they won't ship to the US! I find that
strange.

Why is that strange?

Even coming from Canada, phytosanitary certs and CITES docs are needed, and
those can be a hassle and costly to get.

They are in business to sell plants, right? But only if it is easy and
cheap? Seems strange.

I guess you have to look at all of the circumstances before making that kind
of judgment, Joe.

I sell plants, but do not export precisely for the reasons I mentioned.
Why? Because my "real job" and trying to run the non-plant part of the
business occupies a lot more of my time than I can spare pursuing the
documentation - particularly those for CITES. As that time has to come from
somewhere, the logical loser is the service I provide to the rest of my
customers.

I have seen businesses try to discourage export orders by charging truly
exorbitant fees for getting the documentation, and I suppose if I was
willing to "hose" customers that way, I might be more inclined to take the
money and run, but I don't feel that's fair to anyone.

By taking a "no export" policy on plants, I can dedicate my time to serving
the huge majority of my customers better.
