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. See if we have plants available in the greenhouse.
Yield Estimate:	120 plants (based on flask surveys done 05/05/2006 ) 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 30 - 100 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 07/28/2006 through 11/13/2006) From one most recently surveyed flask 70 - 100 mm (11/13/2006)

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: Brazil. Plants grow in the mountains of southern Brazil in the states of Minas Gerais, Espírito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul. We have been unable to locate specific habitat elevations, but Pabst and Dungs (1975) indicate that Bifrenaria aureo-fulva grows in intermediate conditions. These conditions are also recommended by the McQueens (1993). Therefore, we have estimated habitat elevation to coincide with the reported growing temperatures, but the temperature extremes resulting from this estimation should be used cautiously until more exact information is available. The other elements in the climate table reflect seasonal weather patterns in the habitat.
