| 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: |
240 plants (based on flask surveys done 04/06/2005 through 06/29/2005)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 15 - 45 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 11/09/2005 through 01/02/2007)

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: Jamaica. Broughtonia sanguinea is found over most of the
island, and it has been reported from sea level and about 2500 ft. (0-760
m). Plants are usually found within about 6 mi. (10 km) of the coast at
less than 1600 ft. (490 m), however, and the heaviest concentrations are
reported along the coast on the south side of the island near sea level.
