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: |
270 plants (based on flask surveys done 10/17/2003 )
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 30 - 60 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 04/06/2004 )

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, Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Salvador.
In Mexico, plants are reported from the States of Chiapas and Veracruz.
They are usually found at 1950-6250 ft. (600-1900 m), but plants have been
found as low as 1150 ft. (350 m) near Minatitlán in Veracruz State. In
Mexico, plants grow as on trees in open woodlands or in shady canyons.
Plants identified as Oncidium hintonii L. O. Williams from the Pacific
slopes in the states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Michoacán, and Guerrero were
discussed by McVaugh (1985). These plants grow in sparse oak forest or in
tropical, deciduous forest at 3300-3950 ft. (1000-1200 m). In Guatemala,
plants grow in forests at up to 6550 ft. (2000 m). In other regions, they
are found in wet, lower mountain forests. In Nicaragua, plants are found
in Jinotega in wet mountain forests at 3600 ft. (1100 m). In El Salvador
plants are found on Volcán Chingo at 3300-3950 ft. (1000-1200 m).
