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: 420 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/23/2009 through 12/07/2010)
Yield estimates are only approximate, but may appear to be fairly exact numbers because they are a combination of large rough estimates in remaining mother flasks and more accurate small estimates in reflasks.
Plantlet Sizes: From many flasks 1 - 90 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 05/16/2008 through 05/09/2011)
From one most recently surveyed flask 40 - 90 mm (05/09/2011)

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: New Guinea and the Molucca Islands. In Western Province of Papua New Guinea, plants grow at low elevations along swampy rivers. In Irian Jaya, plants were collected along the Noord River. On the other hand, Dendrobium crepidiferum J. J. Smith, now considered a synonym of Dendrobium glomeratum, was found on Ternate Island in the Moluccas where plants were reported as growing in old forests at about 3950 ft. (1200 m). They have also been reported at higher elevations on Halmahera Island.
