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: |
728 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/06/2007 through 12/15/2011)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 15 - 110 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/10/2008 through 12/15/2011)
From one most recently surveyed flask 15 - 40 mm (12/15/2011)

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: Mexico and Central America including Guatemala, Belize, El
Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. Plants usually grow
on trees in bright light in dry, deciduous, tropical forests or in forests
of evergreen oaks, but they occasionally grow on rocks in full sun.
Although generally considered a lower elevation species, plants are
adaptable and also grow at higher elevations. In Mexico, plants are found
over a large area in the states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Colima, Michoacán,
México, Guerrero, Oaxaca, Puebla, Veracruz, Tabasco, Chiapas, Campeche,
Quintana Roo, and Yucatán. Habitat elevation is reported as 350–5600 ft.
(100–1700 m).
