Culture Notes from Donor: These plants are found growing in loose leaf mould under pines mostly. Their roots run out horizontally, sometimes for about a yard, in the few inches or so of leaf mould that lie on a rocky substrate. I'm sure that this is an acidic environment, with all the decaying leaves and pine needles. The rock in these mountains is basalt and granite.
Comments: These plants will not be available in flask. If you order a flask you will be put on a list for notification of established seedlings.
From plants in the southern mountains of Korea, about 50 miles north of Mok-po.

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: |
93 plants (based on flask surveys done 06/03/2004 through 12/12/2006)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 2 - 90 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 02/06/2004 through 04/10/2007)
From one most recently surveyed flask 60 - 80 mm (04/10/2007)

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: Japan on the islands of Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, and
Kyushu. It is also found in Korea, the Bonin and Ryukyu Islands, and is
widespread in China and Taiwan. It is reported to occur, but is rare, in
northwest India near the western border of Nepal. It grows at elevations
of 1640-9840 ft. (500-3000 m), with the higher elevations occurring in the
warmer, more southerly locations. In Japan it is usually found near the
sea, growing as a terrestrial in open forests on lightly shaded cliffs or
slopes. In northern Japan it grows in coniferous forests, while on the
southern islands it occurs in the warm, temperate vegetation zone in
broadleaved, evergreen forests, often among grasses and bamboos. In
Taiwan, it occurs at 3000-5000 ft. (900-1500 m) in the central mountain
region, usually on dry slopes that face east or southeast.
