    Default Neo's ranking system

    Here is the ranking system for Fuukiran (may note be the newest). Neos with names in this system are called Fuukiran (in Chinese it means rich and noble orchid), and those have no names are called Fu Ran (wind orchids). The top row are the most rare ones, will cost more than $1000/growth. The bottom row are the cheapest, $10-15/growth. Shutennou is in the bottom rank. The middle one in the top rank is Fuukiden, it is selling for $1200/growth in the US. Once a rare one becomes more common, it got moved down the rank, and the price is lower.

    I have seen that ranking sheet! Quite amazing actually. I still wonder why one would fork out that much money? But then I know that some of these plants were sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars! Strange world, huh?

    Cheers. Hoa.

    There is a big disconnection between the Japanese name and the english name for these plants. Sellers in Japan/Korea/China only list the plants in Japanese, and the sellers in the US only list the English name for the plant. I had found a pretty good Japanese site that have both Japanese/English name for most of the plants, but it does not include all the plants. I think I can translate some.
