Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Basket culture.
Comments: Parent plant: This is Gongora armeniaca (as it was tagged), but may perhaps be Gongora armeniaca ssp. cornuta, which will be determined when the offspring bloom. If so, some consider Gongora armeniaca ssp. cornuta to be a separate species. Plant flowers freely with a new inflorescence on each new growth. Inflorescence is approximately 12 inches long with 8 to 14 flowers each. Flowers are relatively short lived, 7 to 10 days. Medium-sized plant.

| Flask Information |
| Availability: |
We have sold all of the flasks for this item. |

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: |
470 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/03/2004 through 06/30/2005)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 2 - 110 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 08/03/2004 through 10/12/2005)

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: Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. This orchid usually is
found at 1650-4900 ft. (500-1500 m), normally growing in very damp, misty
locations. It may also be found, however, in loosely wooded, quite dry
areas, and Jenny (1993) remarks, "The species can be found in very
heterogeneous habitats and is extremely adaptable."
