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: |
120 plants (based on flask surveys done 03/07/2007 through 04/04/2007)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 70 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/22/2007 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 100 mm (06/22/2007)

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: Venezuela, Trinidad, British Guiana, Colombia and Peru. In
Peru, the plants have been found along the Rio Nanay near Iquitos in the
Amazon Basin. In Venezuela, plants were found at about 1500 ft. (560 m)
between the Icabaru and Uaiparu Rivers in the southeastern part of Bolivar
Province. Plants were growing on trees in a fairly dense but not very tall
forest. Some writers feel that the plants found in Peru may represent a
separate species, but they have not been split out at this time. Specific
habitat information was not given, but Coryanthes species are normally
found growing in very acid conditions on the nests of ants.
