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: 30 plants (based on flask surveys done 09/11/2008 )
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 20 - 45 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 03/31/2009 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 45 mm (03/31/2009)

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: The Philippines, Borneo, Taiwan, and the Mariana and Ryukyu Islands. This sun-loving, epiphytic and lithophytic orchid is one of the most common and hardy vandas found in the Philippines. It is found in many provinces on Luzon Island, including Abra, Bataan, Batangas, Benguet Cavite, Ifugao, Laguna, Quezon, and Rizal. Plants have also been found on the islands of Panay, Mindoro, Palawan, and Sulu. Throughout the Philippines, plants grow on both trees and rocks from near sea level up to about 1300 ft. (400 m). In Borneo, plants are found in Sabah on Mantanani Besar Island, Banggi Island, Tigabu Island, and in the Kudat District. Plants grow on branches and trunks of trees in forest on limestone, in coastal forests near the beach, and on sea-cliff scrub from near sea level to about 350 ft. (100 m). Plants often are found in full sunlight and are occasionally found in situations where they are exposed to salt spray during storms. In Taiwan, this orchid is known only from Lanyu Island (Botel Tobago), an island off the southeast coast of Taiwan where plants usually are found on exposed rocks or tree trunks.
