| 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: |
270 plants (based on flask surveys done 05/10/2006 through 01/05/2007)

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: Ecuador. Plants are known only from cloudforests at
5900-7200 ft. (1800-2200 m) on the western slopes of Mt. Pichincha in
Pichincha Province. Although distribution is limited, plants are not rare
in nature. Visitors to the habitat report that large numbers of plants may
be found in the damp, leafy humus on the lower parts of huge,
epiphyte-laden trees.
