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: |
600 plants (based on flask surveys done 07/23/2002 )
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 10 - 50 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 07/30/2003 through 08/06/2003)

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: Brazil. Plants were originally collected in the Organ
Mountains northeast of Rio de Janeiro. It is now known that plants also
occur in the coastal mountains in the states of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo,
and Paraná. The habitat extends inland to the mountains of Minas Gerais.
Plants usually grow on small twigs and branches in cool, misty forests,
but they also grow in crevices and debris pockets in the eroded sandstone
at Vila Velha near Ponta Grossa in the state of Paraná. Plants are found
at 1650-1950 ft. (500-600 m) in areas that receive about 47.2 in. (1200
mm) of rain per year.
