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: Bhutan, northeast India, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam,
and in southwest China. In Bhutan, plants are found in the Punakha
District at about 4900 ft. (1500 m). In Thailand, plants are rare and have
been found in the northern mountains near Mae Sarieng at 2800 ft. (850 m)
and near Loei at 1950 ft. (600 m). In Vietnam, this orchid is rather
common in the northern regions around Cao Bang and Ha Giang. In these
areas they grow as epiphytes or lithophytes with pendulous or ascending
shoots that are up to 31 in. (80 cm) long and are found in open, dry,
primary evergreen and semideciduous, broad-leaved, mixed, and coniferous
forests on rocky karst limestone at 1650-3100 ft. (500-950 m). In China,
plants are found in Guangxi Province and southern Yunnan Province where
they grow on trees in sparse woods at 2600-3950 ft. (800-1200 m).
