| 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. |

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Brazil. This orchid is found in the Serra do Mar, Serra da
Mantiqueira, and the Serra dos Órgãos in southeastern Brazil. Plants
normally grow on trees at 1950–2950 ft. (600–900 m), but they are
occasionally found as high as 3950 ft. (1200 m). Pabst & Dungs (1975)
reported that plants also grow in the Brazilian States of Rio de Janeiro,
São Paulo, Paraná, and Minas Gerais, but no specific habitat information
was provided.
