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: |
450 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/29/2006 through 08/16/2007)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 10 - 60 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 08/29/2006 through 03/25/2008)
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 45 mm (03/25/2008)

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: Java and Bali. This species is still common all over Java
growing in bright conditions on fairly open tree branches at 2300-5250 ft.
(700-1600 m). One of the locations were plants are most easily found is in
trees near the borders of tea plantations. Plants have also been reported
in the Philippines and Australia, but Comber (1990) indicated that plants
from these locations are unlikely to represent natural distribution and
probably resulted from introductions. Comber (1990) reported that var.
tricolor, both the normal color form and the dark form, are found mostly
in West Java while var. suavis is found mostly in Central and East Java.
Some writers, however, indicate that the two varieties may be found
together.
