Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
Comments: Parent plant: One of the offspring of our TN3132 effort in 2002. The parent was an unidentified species in Section Coryanthes from Puerto Ayacucho. In 2006 Dr. Günter Gerlach identified this plant as Coryanthes maculata. It has a "tasty" fragrance of sausages drenched in maple syrup. The flowers are 5 cm from top of cap to bottom of bucket.

| 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: |
390 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/24/2005 through 12/20/2005)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 5 - 100 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 10/27/2005 through 04/04/2006)
From one most recently surveyed flask 80 - 100 mm (04/04/2006)

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: Panama, Venezuela, the Guianas (Guayanas), and Brazil.
In Panama, plants are found near Gatún and in the hills east of Panama
City at near sea level. Plants in this region frequently are found in
the tops of slender trees in ant's nests, often in association with
Epidendrum imatophyllum. Williams and Allen ([1946-1949 1980) reported
that these plants "seldom thrive in cultivation, possibly from lack of
some essential element contributed by the ants in their natural
association."
