Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F). It is mounted and requires a dry season when it will lose all its leaves. Once the buds start to form light misting may commence. If too much water then keikis will result.
Comments: Yield is not expected to be very high because most of the seed was lost when the capsule split.
Parent plant: Deciduous dendrobium, fuzzy canes. 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: |
210 plants (based on flask surveys done 07/06/2004 )
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 20 - 40 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 03/18/2005 through 05/03/2005)
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 40 mm (05/03/2005)
