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: |
303 plants (based on flask surveys done 10/10/2003 through 04/01/2004)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 10 - 25 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 03/01/2004 through 04/01/2004)
From one most recently surveyed flask 15 - 25 mm (04/01/2004)

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: Rather widespread in southeast Africa, with plants
reported from Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia, and
Zimbabwe. In South Africa plants are found on the Eastern Cape, Natal, and
Northern Province. Plants are found most often in riverine forest, where
they can occur in large numbers on small twigs overhanging the water, but
they are also found in evergreen forest, well away from a river, and in
woodland areas with high rainfall. Collections have been reported from
200-5900 ft. (60-1800 m), but in South Africa plants are reportedly
abundant locally in the margins of the uppermost forests in mountainous
regions at up to 4000 ft. (1220 m) where they are often found clinging to
small branches in deep shade.
