It's a lovely little species IMO, definitely a miniature. The current relatively high price is related to it's scarcity vs. demand and not to it's difficulty to cultivate, as it seems quite easy.
Supply of N. hamata will ease up eventually. For our part, we had to discontinue our original two clones due to license reasons and obtained another two clone in-vitro from elsewhere, both of which which promptly contaminated after the journey. This caused a big gap in production which is just improving now as it took us about 2 years to get those clones cleaned up. Of course, we're not the only suppliers. The hairy N. hamata will be available from TC clones as from about mid 2007.
Nothing happens quickly with Neps does it?
Guess that's a small part of the fun.
Alex, may I ask where you got the photo for your avatar from?
