Pollen Parent Blooming Plant |

|
Culture Notes from Donor: Supposedly needs a cool, drier winter rest in order to bloom in the spring, though the pollen parent which was in a cool greenhouse was watered normally, and it bloomed fine! The capsule parent was given cool, dry rest. Seems to dislike repotting.
Pod parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
Comments: Pod parent plant: Medium-sized plant.

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: |
300 plants (based on flask surveys done 01/27/2005 )
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 25 - 60 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/10/2005 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 30 - 50 mm (06/10/2005)
