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: |
210 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/30/2001 )

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: Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia. In Peru,
these plants have been found in the department of Huánuco near Leoncio
Prado above Tingo María at about 2600 ft. (800 m). In Bolivia, plants have
been found in northeastern Cochabamba near Chapare on the Río Cristal
Mayu. No other details were reported. Although described as occurring in
Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador, the name for plants discussed in the
literature from those regions is so mixed up with earlier synonymy that we
are not certain it is actually Epidendrum calanthum being discussed.
