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. |

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Venezuela and Colombia. As Anguloa clowesii Lindley var.
ruckeri (Lindley) Foldats, plants were reported by Foldats (1969-1970 ) as
being found in the Federal District near Caracas at 2950 ft. (900 m) and
in the Pico de Naiguatá at 6550 ft. (2000 m), as well as in the states of
Monagas and Táchira, with no additional details reported. Dunsterville &
Garay (1959) and Dunsterville & Dunsterville (1988), however, reported the
occurrence of this orchid near Caripe in northeastern Venezuela, again
without giving any specific details.
