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: |
390 plants (based on flask surveys done 09/05/2001 )
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 35 - 50 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 03/11/2002 )

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: Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua.
This orchid was first discovered in Las Maria in the Comayagua Valley of
Honduras. A later collection was made in Mecapalco, Mexico with subsequent
collections made in the state of Chiapas, but habitat details for these
collections were not reported. Plants have also been found in Nicaragua in
the department of Nueva Segovia near the Honduran border between Jalapa
and Ocotal at about 1100 ft. (330 m). We do not have any information on
habitat location and elevation in Guatemala and El Salvador. Through its
range, this orchid grows as an epiphyte in lower montane forest.
