Comments: This was the last seed harvested by Dr. Gernot Bergold, the day before he passed away on 5 Feb 2003. It seems fitting that it was from one of the two species of Coryanthes that were named for him (by Gerlach & Romero in 1991).

| 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: |
574 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/22/2003 through 07/20/2003)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 40 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 09/10/2003 through 10/13/2003)
From one most recently surveyed flask 60 - 75 mm (10/13/2003)

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. Plants were found at about 3300-3950 ft.
(1000-1200 m) along the Rîo Calderas near Calderas in the state of
Barinas. Plants frequently grow in dense, secondary forest in areas with
relatively low humidity. They are always found colonized by ants of either
the genus Crematogaster, which is spread world-wide and harmless, or the
genus Azteca, which is found only in the neotropics and is stingless but
biting and aggressive.
