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: |
380 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/10/2005 through 02/08/2006)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 1 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 12/29/2004 through 07/18/2006)
From one most recently surveyed flask 35 - 80 mm (07/18/2006)

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: Central Nepal, Sikkim, the Khasi (Khasia) and Naga Hills
of northeastern India, Burma, northern Vietnam near Cha-pa, and Yunnan
Province in southwest China. Plants grow on mossy trees at 3950-9500 ft.
(1200-2900 m), often with Coelogyne cristata. Plants known as D. bulleyi
were found on dry shady banks in pine woods at 8000-9000 ft. (2440-2740
m), where temperatures are cooler than indicated below. Plants commonly
grow at the base of trees in lower forests where they receive ample
moisture and high light. However, in mistforest zones they are found on
ridge-tops where light is high and plants can dry.
