Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F). Likes to be mounted on either tree fern or cork. Seems to be perfectly happy with intermediate temperatures, provided that it has a cool dry rest in the winter. Prefers the same light as one would provide other members of the genus--moderate to high. This plant is fairly drought tolerant. Will tolerate slightly higher summer temperatures than the average plant of this species--up to 84°F for brief periods without a problem. Likes to grow on horizontal or upright surface, and not pendant!
Comments: Parent plant: Flowers in spring-summer. Grows in a single row, with pseudobulbs alternating sides in an indistinct zigzag pattern. Decent flower shape and fragrance.

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: |
325 plants (based on flask surveys done 10/28/2004 through 07/08/2005)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 10 - 70 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/30/2004 through 06/22/2005)
