    I haven't done business with them, but I believe there are people on the forum who have. My understanding is that their plants are good, but expensive. I know people do repeat business with them.

    NWO is okay.
    Their plants are imported from Japan and they are named cultivars. Sometime the plants are small but healthy and they will grow and bloom under good care.
    About their price--they price their plants according to the plant size and cultivars. Some cultivars are such a slow grower and hard to come by, so they will cost a lot more than what most people want to pay for...
    Go for it but if you have choices, buy Neof. falcata directly from Japanese growers at those international shows.

    Thank you for the answers but I have never heard of Japanese nurseries that were directly in Europe, I have seen one but it is difficult to understand something, it seems that this is the only opportunity for us to see certain cultivars of Neofinetia falcata

    Egoista,
    New World Orchids are great. They have a very large selection, imported directly from Japan. I have a bunch of their plants. They are priced based on rarity, difficulty to obtain, as well as size. They also have some terrific books on Neofinetia. If you're worried about making a mistake, maybe ordering a book, and looking at the plants they bring would be safest? They also have a website, where you can browse!
    It's Newworldorchids dot com

    I have ordered from them and I've been happy. I asked for small, single growth plants (to keep price down), and that's what he sent, but it made it affordable enough so that I could buy a few different kinds.
