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: |
108 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/28/2009 through 08/04/2010)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |

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: Northern Colombia. Plants are found in the Central and
Western Cordilleras and the Magdalena River Valley between the Central and
Eastern Cordilleras. The original discovery was made in the Department of
Antioquina near Medellín. Plants are also found in an area between La
Palma and Flores in the Eastern Cordillera, from Amalfi southward to
beyond Medellín in the Central Cordillera, and near Frontina in the
western mountains. This orchid is usually found at 1650-4900 ft. (500-1500
m) in fairly dense forest. Although the forest floor is very shaded,
Cattleya warscewiczii grows high on trees near streams, often in very high
light.
Cattleya warscewiczii var. sanderiana is found in the Department of
Cundinamarca.
