| Flask Information |
| Availability: |
We have sold all of the flasks for this item. |
| You should: |
Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.
You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |
| Yield Estimate: |

The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Venezuela. In the Anoda Valley, this plant was found in a
cloud forest in a deep cut between Auyántepui and the southern mountains
where Angel Falls is located. This region is located in the State of
Bolívar, just southeast of the confluence of the Río Caroní and the Río
Carrao. Habitat elevation was not reported, but cloudforest habitat and
topographical maps of the region indicate probable elevations of at least
4900 ft. (1500 m). The following climate table and cultural suggestions
are based on this estimated value and should be used somewhat cautiously
until actual habitat elevations are known.
