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: 180 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/05/2008 through 09/24/2009)
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 50 - 110 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 07/07/2009 through 05/03/2010)
From one most recently surveyed flask 70 - 110 mm (05/03/2010)

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 southward through Central America to Costa Rica and possibly Panama. Plants in Mexico have been collected in the state of Chiapas at about 650 ft. (200 m). They have been found in Belize at 2300—3300 ft. (700—1000 m), and there have been many collections recorded from Nicaragua, mostly from Caribbean-facing lowlands and slopes, in the provinces of Atlántico Norte, Atlántico Sur, Boaco, Chontales, Jinotega, and Matagalpa at 500—6250 ft. (150—1600 m), but most were made at 1300—3300 ft. (400—1000 m). In Costa Rica, plants have been collected in the provinces of Alajuela, Cartago, Heredia, Puntarenas, and San Jose at 150—4900 ft. (50—1500 m), but most were made at 350—2950 ft. (100—900 m).
