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 09/19/2003 through 02/11/2004)
Yield estimates are only approximate, but may appear to be fairly exact numbers because they are a combination of large rough estimates in remaining mother flasks and more accurate small estimates in reflasks.
Plantlet Sizes: From many flasks 10 - 45 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 09/29/2004 through 02/25/2005)
From one most recently surveyed flask 25 - 45 mm (02/25/2005)

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. This orchid was found originally in the Serra de Ipanema in the state of São Paulo. Plants have since been found near Poços de Caldas in the state of Minas Gerais, with reports of it also occurring in Bahia. Plants are mostly rupicolous, with some growing on plain rocks over nothing but stone, and are found from 1650-3950 ft. (500-1200 m).
