| 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. |

600 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/13/2003 through 05/27/2004)
|

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: Endemic to Colombia. Jenny (1993-Orchid Digest) states
that all discoveries came from the Departments of Antioquia and Narino at
elevations of 3300-4900 ft. (1000-1500 m). Hernandez (1958), however,
reported that these plants are native to the humid slopes in the
Departments of Tolima and Huila and the Commisaryship of Caquetá at about
6550 ft. (2000 m).
