| 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: |
350 plants (based on flask surveys done 03/15/2005 through 10/26/2005)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 6 - 60 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 03/15/2005 through 04/03/2006)
From one most recently surveyed flask 25 - 40 mm (04/03/2006)

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: Widespread from northeast India through Burma, Thailand,
Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam, then southward through Malaya, Sumatra, and
Borneo. In Thailand, plants have been reported from all regions, except in
the vicinity of Bangkok. Plants are usually found at relatively low
elevations, but collections have been reported from as high as 4250 ft.
(1300 m). Plants generally grow as terrestrials in the shade of bushes and
shrubs. They are normally found in sandy, well-drained soil that contains
an accumulation of organic debris.
