| 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. |

240 plants (based on flask surveys done 03/28/2006 through 10/23/2008)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 20 - 100 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 05/30/2006 through 01/13/2009)
