Culture Notes from Donor: Temperature range not as high as for many Phalaenopsis species, more like standard household temperature ranges.
Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). I have read that P. maculata must be kept moist always, prefer some limestone in the mix and watered with warm water to keep them from slowly declining. I have also read that maculatas like brighter light than most phals.
Comments: Phalaenopsis maculata is quite small for a phalaenopsis species, leaf span often only 6 inches or so, plants and leaves tougher and more solid than most. The flower has a very nice red pattern, basically resembling that shown in Eric Christenson's book, color strong, not washed out. Somewhat flattened flower.
Parent plant: Small plant.

| 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: |
4 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/26/2004 )
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 12 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 02/26/2004 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 12 mm (02/26/2004)

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: Borneo and Peninsular Malaysia. In Borneo, this orchid is
found in Sarawak, Sabah, and Kalimantan where it grows on limestone hills
at 30-3300 ft. (10-1000 m). It is found in the shade on moist, almost bare
rocks, on rocks and rocky banks with thick moss and leaf litter, or at the
base of moss-covered trees. In Malaya, plants have been found at the
Sungai Tahan in Pahang, but details of the habitat were not reported.
