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. |

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: Northeastern Australia. Plants grow in the southeastern
part of the Cape York Peninsula from the Johnstone River to the Annan
River. They are usually found in rainforests near mountain tops at
2600-4900 ft. (800-1500 m), where there are breaks in the forest and heavy
dew, fog, and low clouds are common. They normally grow in shade on forest
trees. Plants growing at higher elevations are usually lithophytic and
tend to be small and spindly.
