Well.. Kind of.

Went to the nursery in Springvale Rd (took me about two and a half hours to
get there) and they did have about twenty little Neofinetia falcata plants,
but they were so tiny.. They were babies, had about three or four leaves
coming out..
Naturally I didn't get it..

So I'll be going there next Sunday when they'll be having a big orchid show,
apparently.. Hopefully there will be some then, maybe I'll find some other
ones, too..

It's a shame, I was really looking forward to it.
Well at least this'll give me some more time to read on how to care for it..


Thanks to all who helped.. And if anyone from here is going to be at that
show, there might be a chance we'll run into each other. ; )

I'll be the guy with the long black coat and long hair. : P

Did they tell you they were babies? Because Neofinetia is
considered a miniature and stays pretty tiny, with leaves 5-10 cm
long.

Yeah, they were babies.. The leaves weren't even an inch long.. The guy told
me that they'll be flowering within the next two years..

I kinda thot so... Oh well, good luck finding one. Mine are from a
flask from Mick at HBI and although I'm pretty sure they're big enough, none
have bloomed yet.

Yes, I was there last w/e too. The Neo falcata are probably just out
of flask, I was almost too scare to handle them! it’s too
optimistic of the vendor to say they’d flower in 2 years
Try the link below for a list of nurseries. I’m almost certain
easyorchids (NSW) has got them, but if you decide to order one make
sure it be shipped in pot and not bare root.

Good luck with your search.
