Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F). My plant is potted in a small clay pot in aliflor and is watered as if it were mounted since the media retains no water. It requires bright light to bloom but does well on a sunny south windowsill and outside (in New Jersey) in the summer.
Comments: Parent plant: One of the brightly colored rupiculous laelias. This particular flower has good substance and shape, is long lasting and a non-fading bright yellow.

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: |
520 plants (based on flask surveys done 03/08/2004 through 02/15/2007)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 10 - 70 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 11/28/2005 through 08/14/2007)
