Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plants: Temperature range I (60-83°F)
 
Comments: This is either a sib-cross or an outcross. I assume a sib cross, because both parent plants were recently purchased from the same vendor.

Pod parent plant: Medium-sized plant.

Pollen 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: 150 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/06/2004 through 08/10/2005)
Yield estimates are only approximate, but may appear to be fairly exact numbers because they are a combination of large rough estimates in remaining mother flasks and more accurate small estimates in reflasks.
Plantlet Sizes: From many flasks 3 - 75 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 08/06/2004 through 08/10/2005)
From one most recently surveyed flask 25 - 50 mm (08/10/2005)
