Culture Notes from Donor: Pod parent plant: Temperature range W (70-90°F). Plant is growing in a 10 inch teak basket filled with lava rock and hasn't been repotted for years (roots are hanging out everywhere though).
Comments: Pod parent plant: Fills the greenhouse with a wonderful fragrance at night and blooms for months with long lasting flowers. Puts B. nodosa to shame for nightime fragrance. Large plant.

| 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: |
418 plants (based on flask surveys done 05/17/2004 through 09/27/2005)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 0.75 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 05/17/2004 through 02/21/2006)

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: The Mascarene and Seychelle Islands. These islands are
located in the Indian Ocean, with the Mascarenes located some 400-500 mi.
(640-800 km) east of Madagascar, and the Seychelles some 750 mi. (1200 km)
northeast of Madagascar. Habitat elevation was not reported, but the
Seychelles are low-lying islands, and we have estimated the habitat
elevation accordingly. The resulting climate table and cultural
suggestions should be used somewhat cautiously, however.
